Vallado Reserva Tinto

Descrição

The Vallado Reserva red wine is produced from old vines aged 60 to 100 years, comprising more than 35 traditional Douro grape varieties, with a predominance of Tinta Roriz, Tinta Amarela, Touriga Franca, and Tinta Barroca. After malolactic fermentation, it ages for 18 months in 225‑liter French oak barrels. It offers a very concentrated aroma with notes of fig, blackberry, tobacco, and subtle balsamic nuances of the wood. On the palate it reveals a full-bodied, meaty texture, with mature and round tannins, finishing with an elegant, mineral, persistent, and complex finish. One of the most prestigious estates in the Douro is Quinta do Vallado, an estate that once belonged to D. Antónia Adelaide Ferreira, the Ferreirinha, and which still remains in the hands of her descendants. Vallado wines had unjustly been forgotten and now naturally recovered their lost time. They are wines of great importance in the history of the Douro and deserve to be among the top selections. Built in 1716, Quinta do Vallado stands as one of the oldest in the Douro. It is located just beside Régua, on the banks of the Rio Corgo. The fate of this emblematic estate is in the hands of João Alves Ribeiro and Francisco Ferreira, both descendants of the Ferreirinha, and responsible for the management of the company and the enology, respectively.
