The producer, tasting note published in 05/10/2022
Yellow citrine color and bright appearance. Delicate aroma, with characteristic notes of the unmistakable Rabigato grape variety. On the palate, it surprises with remarkable acidity, imparted by the Viosinho grape variety, a marked structure, creamy texture, and a delicate retronasal aroma, giving it a long and attractive finish.

The predominant grape varieties on this property are the reds Touriga Franca, Touriga Nacional, Tinto Cão, and Tinta Roriz, and the whites Rabigato and Viosinho, with some old vines with a mixture of dozens of other grape varieties, resulting in wines that express the telluric strength of the place. The landscape at Alto do Pocinho is strongly marked by the Douro River and the imposing Vale da Veiga.
Herdade do Lousial: Herdade do Lousial emerged from the desire to produce wines in Beira Baixa, south of Serra da Gardunha, and was integrated into the Quinta dos Termos family in 2015. Located at the transition from mountains to plains in the Castelo Branco countryside, the estate has low-fertility but deep soils, providing the ideal environment for producing high-quality grapes. Designed from scratch, this property has implemented an innovative precision viticulture system over approximately 32 hectares of vineyards, including red grape varieties such as Touriga Nacional, Rufete, Tinta Roriz, Syrah, Sangiovese, Nebbiolo, and white varieties like Síria, Callum, Fonte Cal, Riesling, among others."
