Casa de Mouraz Dao Tinto 2021

Many different local red grape varieties that together let you discover a fruity and balanced wine. Medium body, round and slightly oaky, notes of black cherry and blackberry and lovely tannins.

From 15 and 85 year old vines planted to 12 hectares of granitic soils all grapes are handpicked. After hand-harvesting grapes are sorted at the same time in mid-to-late September, then destemmed and allowed to spontaneously ferment with indigenous yeasts in stainless steel tanks (5000-11000L) for 1-2 weeks. 

Blend: Touriga-Nacional, Tinta-Roriz, Jaen, Alfrocheiro, Água-Santa and other typical Portuguese varieties (field blend)

The wine spends its entire time on the lees and is aged in stainless steel and 20% used French oak barrels (500L). Aging lasts in oak for 9 months and in stainless steel for more than 2 years. Not filtered.
