This Grande Reserva is our best White. Showing all the concentration and elegance Douro white wine can achieve. This wine is very impressive, packed with intense flavours, concentration and yet remains accessible. It will keep on improving in the bottle for over a decade.

Pale lemon yellow
Pronounced aromatic intensity, with notes of lemon peel, vanilla, white pepper, and subtle floral hints from blossoming trees.
This is where the wine shines—structured yet refreshing, with the fruit and oak notes reappearing and lingering through a long, balanced finish. A complex, food-friendly wine with aging potential.

Viticulture:
The weather in 2023 can be defined as a hot and humid year. Average temperatures stayed above the long term average for most of the months until August. It was a generous year in terms of rain, with December 2022 and June clearly above the average. This trend for above average rain extended to the harvest time, which was not very welcomed by us.
Fermentation:
The grapes were gently pressed, the must slowly fermented at low temperature during one week in stainless steel tanks, and 3 weeks in barrel.
Aging:
The wine stays in 100% French oak barrels during 11 months with battonage once a week for the first 6 months.
Winemakers:
Teresa Batista and Mariana Rosária
