Pairs well with

The producer, tasting note:

Great aromatic purity, complex with a mineral character, exotic fruits, citrus, and white field flowers, characteristic of the grape varieties from which it originates. On the palate, the notes of the aroma come through in an intense and creamy ensemble, with volume and freshness, very long-lasting.

About this Winery

In one of the most remote areas of the Iberian Peninsula, on the border between the Douro Superior and Beira Alta regions, it was among family that its passion grew for the aromas and smells of this land that shapes our character. After coming into contact with many cultures of living and making wine, in various parts of the globe, Rui Madeira returned to the great Douro valley convinced that they have the potential to make the best wines in the world.  Out of respect for nature, due to the way we cultivate their vineyards and wines reflect his experiences, which smell and taste of land, of schist, damp granite, rock rose, wild flowers and fruit.  It is in the winery that he makes wines with the character of our ‘terroir’, expressed through native grape varieties, which instil with a style of their own and an international profile.
