Product details
Winemaking:
very fine and elegant wine made 100% with the Rufete grape, which we ferment in two small stainless steel vats, partially destemmed and partially de-stemmed. These two different micro-vinifications allow us to extract, on the one hand, the greenish and rustic side of Rufete and, on the other, a more elegant and fruity style. The wine is then aged in used French oak barrels to ensure a correct balance between the oak and the varietal character of the wine.
Grape Varieties:
Rufete
Tasting Notes:
The Rufete grape variety reveals nobility due to its aging capacity and produces very exotic reds. Very round, with soft tannins, medium body but very elegant, with aromas of red and black fruits. The wines seem light when compared to classic Douros, but in fact they have a lot of personality and hold up very well in the finish. The low serving temperature, unlike other reds, enhances the fruity character of Rufete and makes it very pleasant to drink.
