Production of Porta 6 Vino Tinto 3.0l Bag-in-Box

The grapes for Porta 6 Vino Tinto 3.0l Bag-in-Box - Vidigal Wines come from the Lisboa winegrowing region in Portugal. This region benefits from an exciting interplay of Atlantic influence and abundant sunshine. During the day, pleasant warmth prevails, while at night cooler air flows in from the Atlantic. As a result, the grapes ripen slowly and develop an intense aroma profile with lively freshness.

The vineyards are rooted in diverse soils, where limestone, clay and sandy components alternate. These differences in subsoil give the Aragonez, Castelão and Touriga Nacional grape varieties their own nuances. The vines produce concentrated grapes whose fruit and structure later become clearly perceptible in the wine.

The harvest is carried out carefully and with a focus on fully ripe, aromatic berries. Targeted selection guarantees that only intact grapes make it to the cellar. After crushing, fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks. This gentle vinification preserves the fresh fruit and maintains the typical aromas of the grape varieties.

During fermentation, the cellar team precisely controls the temperature and the contact time with the grape skins. In this way, enough color, fruit and tannin are extracted without making the wine seem heavy. Afterwards, the young red wine continues to mature in stainless steel tanks. This process preserves its clear, juicy fruit and gives it a modern, uncomplicated character.

The style of the Vidigal Wines estate focuses on drinking pleasure, aromatics, and an attractive price-enjoyment ratio. The cuvée is created with a focus on balance between fruit sweetness, acidity and tannin. Each grape variety contributes its strengths: Aragonez provides structure and spice, Castelão delivers juicy berry fruit, and Touriga Nacional adds depth, color and floral nuances.

Filled into the practical 3.0l bag-in-box, the wine stays fresh for a longer period after opening. The integrated tap protects the contents from excessive contact with air. In this way, the box accompanies many occasions without loss of aroma after the first glass.
