VINIFICATION After the fermentation of the elementary wines at controlled temperature, a period of ‘cuvaison’ (post-fermentative skin maceration) of a week was followed. With a careful selection, contemplating numerous tests and analyzes, the final lot was created which staged in new French oak barrels for 14 months (2018 & 2019) and 24 months (2021). TASTING NOTES Maintaining its classical style, Quinta da Bacalhôa presents red fruits aromas, combined with wood and spices nuances. In the mouth, the sensations of red fruits are highlighted and combined with soft tannins. It has a fresh, slightly mineral, elegant and very complex ending. SERVING This wine pairs nicely with strongly flavored fish or poultry. We also recommend it with soft cheese. It should be served at a temperature of 16ºC to 18ºC. HISTORY 100 years of Bacalhôa - 500 years of History With a total of 1200ha of vineyards, 40 different varieties and 4 wine centers (cellars), the company stands out in the market for its size and 70% autonomy in its own production. To each of the entities that make up Bacalhôa Group - Bacalhôa Vinhos de Portugal, S.A, Aliança Vinhos de Portugal, S.A and Quinta do Carmo - corresponds to a production center with its own characteristics and a heritage with intrinsic cultural value. It is the dynamics generated by the intersection of these various identities, exploited using the most current technology and the knowledge of a renowned team, that Bacalhôa Group, owes its unique ability in the competitive Portuguese market to offer the perfect wine for any occasion. In the 70’s, due to the climate of Azeitão, where Quinta da Bacalhôa is located, it was decided to produce a wine of the most famous French grapes, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. In 1979 was born the Quinta da Bacalhôa, the first Portuguese Cabernet Sauvignon. It was decided to bring to the market a wine that was vinified in its entirety in new oak, with an innovative concept for Portuguese winemaking. PLEASE NOTE: This is a recurring auction.
