Petit Verdot is a great variety of strong individual personality and enormous quality potential. Best known for its presence in small
proportion in the blends of the great wines of the Médoc. It needs sunshine and heat to ripen fully, and has adapted extremely well to the
Douro to produce a varietal wine of exuberant character and individuality.

Very concentrated and dense, this wine presents a deep red colour. The nose is intense with black fruits aromas like blackberry,
blackcurrant as well as spices. Some peppery and cedar notes also come through. In the mouth, it is still rich and full of fruit. This is a
lovely, fresh, bright and fruit driven wine with a good structure and acidity. It will age very nicely in bottle for the next ten years.
