Colheita

Made exclusively from estate-grown Touriga Nacional grapes, harvested at optimum maturity, this unoaked wine expresses the purity and character of Portugal's flagship red variety. Intense aromas of ripe blackberries, violets, and wild herbs lead to a concentrated palate with firm yet polished tannins, remarkable freshness, and excellent structure. Elegant and expressive, it finishes long, persistent, and true to its varietal identity.

Winemaking

This wine is the result of a minimalist winemaking approach designed to express the authentic character of our estate and terroir. The grapes were hand-harvested at optimum maturity and fermented in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks at 25°C, with carefully managed pump-overs to ensure gentle extraction. To enhance structure, colour, and varietal expression, the wine underwent an extended maceration (cuvaison) until the completion of malolactic fermentation. Unaged in oak, it was matured in stainless steel tanks for 12 months, preserving the purity, freshness, and distinctive identity of the Touriga Nacional grape.

Food Pairing

An excellent match for roast lamb with rosemary, grilled rib-eye steak, venison, duck breast, and slow-cooked beef dishes. It also pairs beautifully with chargrilled vegetables, mushroom Wellington, mature Cheddar, and other aged hard cheeses. Its vibrant fruit, refined tannins, and fresh acidity make it a versatile companion to both classic British fare and contemporary European cuisine.
