An excellent red wine D. Graça Reserva produced in the Douro region and made with large varieties of the Douro Superior cultivated in altitude
VINILOURENÇO is based in the Upper Douro, in Poço do Canto village near the City of Meda. It was created with the mission of transforming and revitalizing the production of the vineyards that began to be planted in the 80's by Horacio Lourenço, after returning from Angola. His wine passion led him to develop his heritage
The technology was minimalist, within granite stone vessels with mechanical maceration. After maceration for seven days, the wine was racked to stainless steel vessels where it went malolactic fermentation. After, part of the wine was aged in oak barrels
Aroma of fresh fruit, with hints of red fruits, wood flowers and a slight touch of oak, very well integrated in the whole flavour. The mouthfeel is surprisingly balanced, marked structure, nice freshness and delicate retronasal flavour
