Doravante Red 2016

This wine is born from a mixed vineyard where Baga cohabitates with Touriga Nacional. We decided to take this partnership further and we harvested the grapes from these two varieties on the same day and fermented the grapes together in an oak vat where the wine also aged. We tried to capture the most delicate sides of these two Portuguese varieties, making a long and soft skin contact. The result is a wine full of elegance, delicate fruit and Atlantic character.

THE 2016 VINTAGE

The year 2016 was characterized by a very cold and rainy spring and a dry and hot summer. These grapes were harvested at the end of September. The high thermal amplitudes of the area and the cool Bairrada nights made it possible to obtain a wine full of freshness and depth.
