Dao Casal Mor Tinto Special Selection
0 kr.
This wine from the Dão is by Quinta do Covão in the stunning village of Sandomil, with its fluvial beach in the river Alva and its old Roman bridge, nestled in the Beira Alta subzone, near the city of Seia. The vineyards of the Quinta are scattered along the slopes of the Estrela mountain range, deep in a continental climate with high altitudes where cool nights follow warm sunshine. This climate, combined with granitic soils and fresh river water, is ideal for growing grapes with high acidity and making wines that can be cellared. Lucia Ferreira, sister to our Douro winemaker, Filipe Ferreira, oversees the viticulture and vinification here. |
