Product details
With Tiara we long to create a light wine, fine but with great vigor and energy. All the heritage is found on the vine, the natural yeast for alcoholic fermentation, its boldness, the fresh and elegant character. Tiara comes from vines that are over 60 years old, planted at 600 metres in altitude, where Códega do Larinho is the dominant grape variety. The vineyards that gave rise to Tiara were harvested in mid-September. The grapes were transported chilled and pressed during the night. Decanting took place for 24 hours, followed by alcoholic fermentation in large barrels, at a temperature varying between 8-13°C. The low temperature led to the wine fermenting during a year. Malolactic fermentation was carried out.

Tasting Notes:
The long fermentation in barrel gives Tiara a very complex, deep, and mineral aroma. Very discreet in the notes of stone fruits, citrus and with light medicinal notes. Very vibrant in the mouth, with a very unique style, where sugar and acidity are in perfect harmony. Fresh, light and very accurate, with a strong mineral component. Ending full of energy, with good citrus notes. A wine that is a pleasure to drink while young to feel all the energy, but that will have a long and healthy life in the cellar.

Disclaimer:
The photo shown is a copy of one of the bottles we have available for delivery. Keep in mind that the older the wine, the more likely the bottle will have some external dirt or slightly damaged labels. This does not mean, however, that the wine is not in a condition to be consumed.
The wines from our rarity zone are stored and air-conditioned in the most correct way so that the wine ages correctly in the bottle, but over time, the wine evolves and changes its characteristics.
We recommend that you carefully remove the cork and let the wine air for some time in order to release its natural aromas. Avoid decanting as it can be a very aggressive operation for old wines.
