Gran Reserva Douro - Quinta Da Corte

The powerful Gran Reserva Douro from Quinta Da Corte flows into the glass with a dense purple red. On the nose, this red wine from Quinta Da Corte reveals all kinds of acacia and jasmine. As if that were not already impressive, the maturation in large wooden casks also adds pepper.

This Portuguese wine tastes pleasantly dry. It was bottled with an exceptionally low residual sugar content. As you would expect from a wine, this Portuguese charmer delights, despite all its dryness, with the finest balance. Excellent flavor simply does not necessarily require a lot of sugar. On the palate, the texture of this powerful red wine presents itself as wonderfully velvety, fleshy, and dense. On the finish, this wine from the Douro & Porto wine-growing region finally impresses with a lovely length. Hints of jasmine and acacia once again appear.

Vinification of the Gran Reserva Douro from Quinta Da Corte

This powerful red wine from Portugal is vinified from the grape varieties Touriga Franca and Touriga Nacional. After the grape harvest, the grapes are quickly brought to the winery. There they are selected and gently crushed. This is followed by fermentation in stainless steel tanks and large wooden casks at controlled temperatures. After fermentation is complete, the Gran Reserva Douro can further harmonize for several months on the fine lees.
