Alto Do Pocinho Tinto

Description

This Alto do Pocinho, hailing from the slopes between 200 and 350 metres in the Douro Superior, is a bold statement. Crafted with Touriga Nacional, Tinto Cão and Touriga Francesa, it showcases the land’s rugged character thanks to a winemaking approach that truly respects the schistous terroir. The meticulous hand-harvesting and brief passage through French oak ensure a remarkable balance, validated by the Gold medal at the Wine Masters Challenge 2021 – a testament to the team’s skill, led by Ángela Marín, João Carvalho, Pedro Carvalho and Virgílio Loureiro. Perfect paired with a hearty beef stew or young kid, this wine demonstrates beautifully how tradition and innovation can harmoniously coexist.
