Valle Pradinhos PORTA VELHA Tinto Douro Portugal
Description: This was Manoel Pinto de Azevedo's retreat from the hustle and bustle of industry in Porto. He bought an old manor house and surrounding lands in 1913 and frequently hosted shooting parties and family get-togethers. Later he planted vineyards and built a winery to slake the thirsts of his guests. Over the years the reputation of the wine grew and his successors developed the vineyards further, however it was not until the 1990's that consistency of quality was achieved. Maria Antonio Pinto de Azevedo Mascarenhas now heads this unique estate and together with forward thinking winemaker Rui Cunha are taking quality to new heights. This wine is a blend of Tinta Roriz with Touriga Nacional and Cabernet Sauvignon, that additionally make up the majority of the vareital stock, planted on south-facing slatey schist slopes at about 500 meters above sea level. Part of the wine is barrel matured and is showing plenty of inky black fruit character with flavours of dry truffles and dried herbs. An elegant structure and good balance complement the finish of this enjoyable wine. (12 x 75 cl)
