2016 Explicit Colheita Tardia Branco Doce

Description

The Jorge Rosa Santos and Sons Agricultural Society Ltd. is the family business that manages the agricultural operation on Monte do Mata Mouros, in the parish of Glória in Estremoz. The family has a deep connection to farming that dates back to the era of the Marquis of Pombal, and the current generation drew inspiration to launch this “small project.” Monte do Mata Mouros is a modest plot of land located in a foothill of the Serra d’Ossa, facing the Ribeira de Tera valley. Here, high‑quality grape varieties were planted under conditions of great austerity, shaped by exceptional microclimatic factors and the skeletal, loamy soils. The philosophy guiding their viticultural and enological practices is based on allowing the vines to express themselves freely, treating each vineyard as unique. Consequently, each harvest deliberately displays distinctive characteristics, reflecting the plants’ responses to that year’s environmental variations. Every harvest is irreplicable and unparalleled.
