Vallado Tinto

Descrição

**Vallado** The red wine *Vallado Lady Baga* is produced in the Upper Douro, in the sub‑region with the lowest vineyard density. Historically, difficult access and labour shortages contributed to this sparse planting, but today the area is regarded as one of the most promising terroirs in the Douro. The grapes come from Quinta do Orgal in Castelo Melhor – Vila Nova de Foz Côa, where 35 hectares of vineyards have been planted to date and organic farming is practiced. **Vinification** The wine is 100 % from a north‑facing vineyard at Quinta do Orgal in the Upper Douro, with certified organic vinification. To achieve a gentle extraction, 20 % of the grapes were used whole bunches (not destemmed) and the remaining 80 % were left uncrushed (whole cluster). After a 24‑hour cold maceration, the grapes fermented for a week with very low extraction. **Aging** Immediately after alcoholic fermentation, the wine was transferred to used 225‑liter oak barrels. The wine underwent malolactic fermentation in French oak barrels and was aged for about 12 months. **Allergen information** Contains sulfites. SKU: 107353
