2016 Quinta do Pessegueiro Vintage Port 2 x 0.75L
DESCRIPTION
The philosophy of Roger Zannier's estate combines the wisdom of traditional Douro viticulture with modern scientific knowledge. The sharing of knowledge, the passion, motivation and commitment of the employees, who also cultivate respect for the land and nature, make it possible to improve, vintage after vintage, the quality of the wines of Quinta do Pessegueiro, making it today one of the great Douro wines.
The entire vineyard is farmed in a way that respects the natural balance, banishes herbicides and is close to organic farming. We already have 18 ha (60%) certified and the remaining 12 ha, although not certified, are treated in a very similar way to organic. Each plot is cultivated according to the nature of the soil, the slope, the exposure and the varieties that populate it. The horse is also an essential assistant in the work of the espalier vines.
WINEMAKER: João Cabral Nicolau de Almeida.
AWARDS/RECOMMENDATIONS
90 Points, Wine Enthusiast
17.5 Points, Vinho Grandes Escolhas
WINE VARIETIES: Touriga Nacional (60%) Touriga Franca (40%).
VINIFICATION
The grapes come from 40-year-old vines on two of the Quinta’s plots of land, which are northeasterly facing and at 150m above sea level. After manual vintage in 25Kg crates, the grapes remained in a refrigerated room for 12h. Vinification was carried out with foot treading in the winery for 5 days. During the vinification and aging process, the wine was moved gently by gravity and without the use of pumps.
TASTING NOTES
Colour: classic ruby. Nose: presents aromas of cherry and blueberry, some eucalyptus and menthol candy. Mouth: persistent, fresh, red fruits well integraded with excellent tannins.
SERVING
It goes well with chocolate fondant, crusty caramel cake, blue cheese. Serve at a temperature between 16ºC and 18ºC. Consume in moderation.
