1808 Colheita Red 2022 — Tinta Roriz from an 80-year-old vineyard, organic and vegan
Two Beira Interior plots at 690 metres, one of them eighty years old. Six months in barrel, black cherry and vanilla, firm through the finish.
Two vineyards make this wine: one 80 years old yielding four tonnes per hectare, one ten years old yielding six, both 155 kilometres from the Atlantic at 690 metres, planted east to west on unilateral cordon. High plain, very hot in summer, wind and snow in winter.
Certified organic and vegan. The blend is 80% Tinta Roriz, 15% Touriga Nacional and 5% Rufete, hand-harvested in the third and fourth weeks of September. Destemmed and crushed, three days of cold maceration, fermentation from 12 ºC to 32 ºC, malolactic in used French oak, then six months in barrel. 13% alcohol.
Raspberry, liquorice and black cherry on the nose. The palate brings black cherry and vanilla over a firm structure, closing with persistence.
Serve at 18 ºC. Drink through 2030. Pairs with tapas, cured ham, grilled pork, chicken and beef. First vintage produced: 2018.
