Quinta Vale D Maria Vale D Maria Vinha Do Sabo Red

Details

Winemaking Process All the grapes are hand-picked, carefully selected in our sorting table and de-stemmed before entering the granite stone lagares, at Quinta Vale do Sabor. All the grapes are foot-trodden in the lagares, they then ferment for 7 or 10 days at controlled temperatures between 22 and 27C, in stainless steel vats with manual pump-overs. The wine is then transferred into second and third use French-oak barrels of 225L where the malolactic fermentation takes place. It ages, afterwards, for 18 months in the same oak barrels. The final selection and blending of the wine is done one month before bottling.

Alcohol percentage: 14

Tasting Notes

With an attractive ruby color, Vale D. Maria Vinhas do Sabor red 2020 is very concentrated and fresh. Lively, with a floral touch, it strikes, on the nose, for the exuberance of red fruit, such as raspberries, blueberries and blackberries. With a good structure and elegant tannins, this wine has a long and fresh finish.
