Casa Da Passarella O Fugitivo Cão Tinto

Description

“This Casa da Passarella O Fugitivo Tinto Cão is a truly remarkable return to the Dão region, born from the ashes of a long-standing tradition – and a subtle nod to the legendary P63. Solely focused on Tinto Cão, this wine embodies the very spirit of the Serra da Estrela vineyards: granite soils, stark and demanding, as one would expect. The spontaneous fermentation in granite lagares with partial lees contact, combined with a lengthy 24-month aging in new and used 500-liter barriques, delivers a complexity hinting at a beautiful evolution within the bottle. It’s a refined wine with noticeable tannins and a persistent finish – a perfect expression for those who appreciate the Dão’s history and authenticity, perhaps best enjoyed alongside a hearty black pork dish.”
