Xisto Ilimitado Tinto

Description

“Xisto Ilimitado, a passionate creation of enologist Luís Seabra, is a true reflection of the Douro’s soul. Crafted from vines aged between 25 and 65 years, nestled in schistous soils, this wine bursts with vibrancy – a deep ruby colour and captivating aromas of ripe red and blue fruits, underscored by the refreshing scent of wet stone and delicate violet notes. The blend – featuring Trincadeira, Tinta Barroca, Alicante Bouschet, Touriga Francesa, Aragonez, Malvasia Fina and Rufete – delivers remarkable complexity, with flashes of white pepper and flint adding a pronounced mineral dimension. Fermented *à la cru,”* alongside full maceration, and aged in used oak barrels, this wine achieves a remarkable balance of body and acidity, finishing long and brilliantly, perfect with grilled meats and a selection of strong, aged cheeses. It’s a wine that embodies the authentic character of the Douro – for those seeking genuine flavour and personality.”
