Product details
Grown with Baga grape planted in chalky-clay soils in vines with an average age of 40 years-old. At the end of August was made a first harvest to the production of Sparkling Wine (‘Espumante') from the same grapes, of about 2/3, to increase the concentration and anticipate the maturation of the grapes left in the vine to harvest in the end of September to produce this Vinhas Velhas. Vinified in stainless steel vats during 10 days, it was matured in used casks (650l of capacity) during 12 months.
Grape Varieties:
Baga
Tasting Notes:
It is a big uptick in depth and power over its elegant sibling, the Vinha Barrosa. Intense, crisp and quite stunning this year, it is gripping on the finish, silky and impressive. Its structure and acidity should give it a long life ahead, but it has the depth to support those structural items as well.
Store and Serve Advices:
It should be served at a temperature of 16ºC to 18ºC.
Food Pairing:
To be dished up with gamey meats as well as other red meat dishes.
Allergens:
Contains sulphites.
