This wine is the result of our effort to conserve the genetic wealth that still exists in the Dão region.

Grape varieties: Field blend of old vines. We have identified some grape varieties such as Jaen, Baga, Touriga Nacional, Bastardo, Moscatel Pardo, but there are many others. We have identified some grape varieties such as Jaen, Baga, Touriga Nacional, Bastardo, Moscatel Pardo, but there are many others. Very old vines (probably hundreds of years old), without a conduction system, located 500m high.

Soil: Granite with lines of clay and sand.

Tasting Notes: With violet tones, it shows a very fresh aroma, markedly mineral, with wild fruits. It is fine and very complex in aroma. In the mouth it is enveloping with fresh fruit and silky tannins. A wine with presence, elegant and very fresh. A very unique Dão record, with good acidity, where balance and harmony are evident. It has a long, deep and delicate finish.

Vinification:  Dente d'Ouro wine is the result of the effort to preserve the genetic heritage that exists in the Dão region. Lager fermentation, aging in 225l barrels with 10 years and bottled by gravity without filter. Minimalist intervention to preserve the characteristics of the vine.
