Unique, textured and still evolving. A Colheita with a very exciting future ahead.
Technical wine sheet
Full-bodied and complex, with a rich nose of chestnut, warming spices, dry grape, fig and plum. Aged in both oak and chestnut wood barrels, this Colheita has a uniquely textured profile, with noticeable tannins and a gradual, satisfying transition from fresh fruit to drier, nuttier flavours. A wine still gaining in complexity and one with remarkable further ageing potential ahead of it.
