Vinhas do Côa Tinto 2021

Grape Varieties: Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca, Tinta Roriz.

Tasting Note: Deep red, ruby colour. Wonderfully aromatic, showing typical violet scents, the hallmark of the Touriga Franca. In the palate, fresh, vibrant plumy fruit, well rounded by the balanced wood integration.

Winemaking: Manual triage is undertaken on a sorting table after which the grapes are de-stemmed and gently crushed. The grapes are relayed to the fermentation vats by a gravity process.
Fermentation taking place between 24 – 26 º C. Maceration is very gentle and aimed at
producing a wine intended for earlier drinking.

Gastronomy: Ready for drinking now, although it has the ageing potential to develop further in bottle for a few more years. Ideally serve between 16 – 18 ºC. Try it with meat grilled, etc.

Winemaker: Carloto Magalhães
