IDENTITY
The flagship of the Quinta! A boutique wine that will appeal to all your senses. A powerful monovarietal Touriga Nacional of the highest quality, only produced in exceptional years.
TASTING NOTES
Very dark colour. Clean and intense in the nose, scents of figs, violets, cedar wood, tobacco and smoke. Excellent finesse and elegant structure. Very creamy and opulent, soft, mild in acidity, ripe tannins, very long lasting, ending with chocolate and roasted notes. A wine for special moments!
SERVICE & PAIRING
Serve at 15 –17ºC. Decant or open the bottle a few hours before drinking to release the full aromatic potential. Goes well with red meat, game, risotto, or just by itself.
VINIFICATION & AGEING
Grown on the barren, stony, red soils of the Quinta. Vines with strong yield reduction, grapes harvested by hand and carefully selected. Fermentation in small, open steel tanks with manual immersion of the cap. 24 months maturation in French oak barrels, thereof 75% new. A handcrafted wine, unfined and unfiltered.
