Quinta Do Fojo Tinto

Description

“Born from the slopes of the Douro Valley’s Pinhão region, this Quinta do Fojo is a true testament to age and tradition. Crafted from a vineyard planted in 1986, the wine showcases a full body and remarkable longevity, largely thanks to the dominant Tinta Roriz grapes. Grown on vines rising between 250 and 370 meters, the wine benefits from a distinctive schistous terroir and a Mediterranean climate. The winemaking process, incorporating extended aging in French oak balseiros and foot treading, results in impressively robust tannins and a complex profile bursting with notes of tobacco and charcoal. A truly memorable expression of terruo, earning a well-deserved 90 points from Robert Parker, this wine is ideally suited to accompany roasted meats or cured delicacies – a sensory delight, guaranteed.”
