The Story

Redoma Reserva is made with grapes from ancient 80 years old vines, planted at an altitude of 600 metres in mica schist soils. Since its creation in 1995, the main aim of producing this wine has been to express the character of the Douro old vineyards. At the end of the ageing period, the best barrels are selected, considering their minerality, complexity and ageing potential and not necessarily those with the most expressive aromas.

Written Notes

Extremely fresh and elegant, very mineral with great complexity, with citric aromas and apricots and white peaches notes. Elegant and subtle smoke character.

The palate has crisp acidity and great intensity with full texture, with a raft of white fruit flavors and mineral overtones, very persistent with very good ageing potential.

2008 was a fresh year in Douro wines, with good amount of water in the soil and unusual fresh nights during August and September in the Douro Valley, which led to a slow and longer maturation process.

Harvest was done with good weather, during middle September.

After a first selection of grapes done in the vineyard, a very meticulous selection was undertaken before destemming and gentle pressing. The must obtain was left to settle and then transferred to small oak 228l French oak casks, for natural fermentation. The wine aged in casks on is lees without steering, for 9 months without malolactic
