Casa Ferreirinha Papa Figos Red Wine, 2018

Wine

A ruby-colored wine, with purple nuances. It has an intense and complex bouquet, with hints of black and red fruit and some tree fruits, combined with a heather and resin balsamic aroma, cocoa and chocolate. In the palate, it has a good volume, rounded tannins and well-integrated acidity. Hints of red fruits and light cocoa stand out in the flavor. The finish is long and quite elegant.

35% Tinta Roriz, 30% Tinta Barroca, 20% Touriga Franca, 15% Touriga Nacional

The grapes were sourced from the Douro Superior sub-region, namely from Quinta da Leda and from with their own vineyards, preferably exposed to the North and at a higher altitude. After being destemmed and lightly crushed, the grapes are carried into stainless steel vats, where the alcoholic fermentation process takes place. During this stage, periodical smooth macerations are carried out with controlled temperatures. After the final fermentations, a period of maturation in tanks of stainless steel and cement followed. The final blend was made further to tests and analysis conducted during this period. To preserve the highest possible quality, the wine was only subject to light fining and filtration prior to bottling.
