Vinha do Convento Red

Unique terroir

L’expression d’un terroir unique

The Conde Vimioso Vinha do Convento tells the story of a unique terroir, a unique environment, a vineyard that is totally covered by the peculiar pebble stone. A generous gift left by nature over 400,000 years ago, by the hand of the Tagus River that crossed our land. Bottled in truly exceptional years, this wine was designed so that the legacy and magic of this vineyard will last for decades to come.

Notes de Dégustation

Deep and dense ruby color. Its intense aroma is marked by a perfect combination of ripe black and red fruit, such as blackberry and plum. Floral notes of violet, nuances of tobacco leaves, and light spices. Very concentrated, with robust, complex, and very soft tannins, lively, but very well-integrated acidity, it is a wine with great aging potential. Its elegance and persistence define its long aftertaste, where fresh mineral and eucalyptus notes seem to stand out.

Vinification

After manual harvesting of the pre-selected plots, during which a careful selection of the grapes was made, they were cooled to 5ºC, followed by total destemming and gentle crushing. The next step was pre-fermentative maceration, followed by alcoholic fermentation at a controlled temperature, ending with a long post fermentative maceration. Throughout this process, the usual delestages and remontage were carried out under great rigor and control, in order to obtain high quality, aromatic and phenolic components. The 3 grape varieties that make up the blend were vinified and aged separately.
