Vale D. Maria planted on the slope of the Vale do Rio Sabor, the grapes that make up Vale D. Maria Douro Superior branco come from Quinta Vale do Sabor in the Douro Superior, with vines aged between 20 and 35 years. Vinification and ageing: After a hand‑picked harvest at Quinta Vale do Sabor, the grapes are destemmed. Half of the lot is crushed in granite quarts, while the remainder ferments in stainless‑steel tanks. Following fermentation, 65% of the wine undergoes a maturation period in stainless‑steel tanks. The remaining 35% completes the final third of the alcoholic fermentation in used French oak barrels of 500 L. The wine then spends six months aging in French oak barrels, with weekly bâtonnage. Food pairings: White meats, shrimp curry, salt‑crusted fish, salads.
