Quinta do Vesúvio DOC 2009 Red
93,99 €
Aged for 13 months in new 400L French oak barrels. In 2009, after yet another dry winter, hot summer conditions clearly indicated that an early harvest was likely and good weather and considerable heat throughout the final ripening period brought one of the earliest harvests at Quinta do Vesuvio. The combination of drought and very hot temperatures in August and September set the stage for a challenging crop. In fact, this was one of the smallest vintages in the Douro over the last 15 years, with some of the region’s main varietals failing in some areas under the difficult conditions. Contains sulfites.

Quinta da Rede Sousão Red
22,49 €
Explore the Quinta da Rede Sousão Red, a robust and full-bodied wine from the Douro region, Lower Corgo sub-region. Originating from vineyards on the slopes of the Serra do Marão at an altitude of 400 meters, this wine is purely made from Sousão grapes, known for their intensity and depth.
The vinification process includes total destemming and prolonged yet gentle skin maceration, followed by fermentation in mechanical lagares at 26ºC for 10 days. After fermentation, the wine matures for 16 months in new 500-liter French oak barrels, gaining unique complexity.
This red wine boasts an intense red color and deep aromas of wild berries, field herbs, and spices, with a light smoky touch from the barrel. On the palate, it offers juicy red fruit and solid tannins, complemented by excellent acidity that brings freshness and persistence. Ideal for pairing with fatty or well-seasoned meats like pork or goat, it should be served between 16ºC-17ºC. With potential to age for at least a decade, it is an excellent choice for maturing in your cellar.
