Tasting note
Plush Portuguese Syrah, brimming with berries and perfumed with clove, cinnamon and vanilla.
Viticulture
The grapes come from experimental plantings of Syrah established in 2004 at Quinta da Cabreira in the Douro Superior sub-region. In the Douro valley, vineyards are planted in Patamares (terraces) and vinha ao alto (rows of vines planted up and down the slope). The aspect is east/north and the vines are 11 years old. The soil is schist.
