Casa Ferreirinha Vinha Grande

Tasting Notes

Notes of red and black fruit with hints of cocoa and chocolate. There are further spicy notes and a well-integrated oak element adding complexity. It has powerful and firm tannins, a balanced acidity and a smooth finish.

Varieties

42% Touriga Franca, 30% Touriga Nacional, 22% Tinta Roriz, 6% Tinta Barroca

Technical Notes

Vinified at the wineries of Quinta do Seixo, in Cima Corgo, and Quinta da Leda, in the Douro Superior with grapes sourced from these two sub- regions. After soft-crushing and destemming, the grapes are transferred to stainless steel tanks, where alcoholic fermentation occurs for an average of 8 days. During this phase, soft maceration at controlled temperatures takes place for delicate extraction of color and aromas.

Food Pairing

An excellent option to accompany meat, cheeses and pasta dishes. It may also be enjoyed with white meat or oven-steamed fish.
