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

The Redoma Reserva White 2014 shows a light citric and crystalline color. The fresh and mineral profile reveals the fantastic terroir where the vines grow. Complex and very captivating, it presents white fruit notes, as well as white flowers and an orange blossom fragrance. The barrel notes are very well integrated, giving complexity and deepness to the aroma, but without being heavy.

Tense in the mouth, with a good volume in glass. The freshness, its citric acidity, and the strong minerality offer lightness and elegance before its structure. Dry and austere, it is a white wine that will benefit from being in cellar. Very long finish, with light smoked, salted notes.

The viticultural year of 2014 at Quinta de Nápoles was characterised as a year of lower quantity but higher quality. Everything indicated an early year, due to the large amount of water accumulated during the winter and spring. The maturation phase occurred early and allowed the beginning of the harvest in August. At Quinta de Nápoles most parcels were harvested over a period of good weather between 23 August and 21 September.

The grapes were harvested at the beginning of September and after careful selection on the sorting table, they were pressed slowly for controlled extraction. Without skin maceration, the must rested for 24 hours, followed by slow alcoholic fermentation in French oak 228 litre barrels. Redoma Reserva aged for 10 months without bâtonnage.
