Produced by Maçanita Vinhos from a historic field blend in Carlão, it reflects both the complexity of the region and the depth that comes from low-yield, old-vine fruit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn the glass, it shows a bright lemon-yellow color with a lively, polished appearance. The nose is fresh and mineral-led, with subtle creamy notes that add depth and sophistication.\n\nOn the palate, the wine is dense and rich, yet lifted by vibrant acidity that keeps it balanced and precise. Its structure suggests good aging potential, allowing the mineral core and textural complexity to develop further over time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis wine comes from more than 90-year-old vineyards in Carlão, Cima Corgo, at around 480 meters above sea level, where the soils transition from schist to granite. The vines are a traditional field blend with 13 grape varieties, harvested by hand at very low yields. The grapes are whole-bunch pressed, then the must undergoes spontaneous fermentation in cask with bâtonnage, followed by 12 months of aging in neutral barrels.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFood \u0026amp; Serving\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eServe this wine at 10–12°C.
