Xisto Tinto

Description

“Xisto de Luis Seabra is, quite simply, a bold statement from the Douro. Born from intensely schistous blue soils at an altitude of 510 meters, and crafted with hand-harvested grapes seeking optimal ripeness, this red wine embodies the elegance of the Corgo sub-region. The spontaneous fermentation, utilizing native yeasts, delivers a remarkable aromatic complexity – think ripe black fruit alongside a subtle spice nuance, though undeniably influenced by new French oak. Robert Parker famously predicted 92+ points, and it’s easy to see why: a wine that retains remarkable freshness and the terroir’s expressive character, even with aging. Perfect alongside grilled red meats, this Xisto is destined to create a truly unforgettable experience.”
