DFJ Vinhos FONTE DO BECO Terras do Sado Pamela Portugal
Description: The Palmela region is on the Setubal Peninsular south of Lisbon. Long hours of grape ripening sunshine balanced by cool, humid, maritime air mean the region has ideal conditions for the vine. It is famous for its superb, robust red wines. Made from 100% Castelão , one of Portugal's best native varieties this wine has been developed by José Neiva the leading oenologist of this important wine region. He has chosen to put his name to this wine after making a selection of prime quality grapes from the huge harvest at his disposal. The wine was produced using the Traditional method, but the grape varieties are vinified separately. Ripening of grapes in the extensive vineyards is closely monitored. A selection was made of the very best fruit from the most mature vines and this was harvested exclusively by hand. After destalking the grapes are crushed with an extremely gentle roller system. Selected extraction enzymes and yeasts are used. The wine was fermented gently over a long period in order to extract maximum flavour whilst preserving primary aromatics. For further extraction the wine is left to macerate with the skins for 30 days after fermentation. It was bottled after a 3 month period of oak ageing. With an excellent intense ruby colour this wine is full of character and flavour. The palate shows delicious ripe but mature fruit with distinctive forest fruit aromas and a hint of oak-spice. It is has smooth, full body with a good firm structure and a very persistent, dry finish. (12 x 75 cl)
