ABOUT

TASTING NOTES 

Its ruby ​​color and youthful, exuberant, and mineral aroma offer a magnificent balance between fruit, dense structure, and alcohol, and confirms that the full character of the Douro fits inside a bottle of wine, with extraordinary richness.

TASTING NOTES 

The wine’s intense color stimulates individual memories and transports us to the immense vineyard and rugged landscape of the Douro wine terraces. A broad journey of flavors is manifested through the density and strength of the pleasant and seductive aromas, with a more sophisticated side provided by the use of good French oak barrels. At the time of tasting it closes with a muscular structure and a juicy texture that intertwine with the body of the wine, providing for a tense, long, and deep finish.

ABOUT 

We realised that the Douro’s white wines, while still young, would bring other forms of expression from our micro-terroirs. The almost infinite combinations of soil, altitudes, solar exposure and grape varieties have been experimented and refined, and different lots have been bottled with a very personalised character.

TASTING NOTES 

In an explosion of aromas to meadow flowers, the green Reineta apple and the peach of vines, are balanced by the intense flavors of white pulp fruits - the lime, vibrant, fresh and very long.

FOOD PAIRINGS 

Shellfish, appetizers and cured meat.

TASTING NOTES 

This is a charming wine, in which the Douro is perceived in its fullness: red fruits that are combined with the toasted and sweet aromas of French oak barrels, we perceive a beautiful sensation of fruit in the flavor, which mixes in the succulent structure with round tannins and a fluid body. A long, tense, and persistent finish.

ABOUT 

The first study for monovarietal planting in the Douro region was conducted in Quinta Nova de Nossa Senhora do Carmo, between 1979 and 1981, in conjunction with the Portuguese Ministry of Agriculture, through the Centro de Estudos Vitivinícolas do Douro (Douro Winemaking Studies Centre). In the study, the best solar exposures were chosen in Quinta Nova to study the planting of three grape varieties: Tinta Roriz, Touriga Nacional and Touriga Franca.

VINEYARD

The Parcela29 (Plot), planted with Touriga Nacional, has 3300 vines, a slope of 20%, and an altitude between 170 and 205 metres. It represents a unique wine and a fundamental piece in the history of Quinta Nova de Nossa Senhora do Carmo in its maximum expression of terroir. A genuine Referência (reference) that combined with century-old vines (Plot 21), results in a wine with a very elegant profile, almost feminine, contrasting with an intense structure of juicy tannins of an enormous precision. A schist texture of high gravity, the savoury profile, and the purple colour reflects the nature of the Touriga Nacional variety.
