2007 Quinta do Portal Colheita Moscatel do Douro 3 x 0. 75L
DESCRIPTION
Quinta do Portal is a family fine winemaking company that embraced with passion the “Boutique Winery” concept. We are producers of Douro wines, premium Port Wines, fortified Moscatel wines and a little Olive Oil.
The new project that started in the early 90’s of the XX century, had on its base Quinta dos Muros, a centenary estate of the Mansilha family and the Port Wine that was produced there for 4 generations. With a clear vision of the future, we made part of the first group of Douro winegrowers that believed in the Douro potential to make outstanding still wines.
Paulo Coutinho has been the head winemaker since 1994. We also count with the expert consultancy from Pascal Chatonnet since 1992 for the Douro wines, and had the privilege to work with Jeremy Bull in the Port wines in the end of the 90´s and first years of the new century.
Quality has always been our motto, as can be seen by the countless international awards and 90+ points reviews given to our wines, olive oil and our other services.
We are members of The Porto Protocol, a movement whose vision is a a world where companies join efforts and act together to slow and reverse climate change.
In May 2022 we installed photovoltaic pannels that will allow us to produce 50% of our electricity needs.
During the harvest we reuse the CO2 produced during fermentation to inert vats and "lagares".
Our vineyards are under integrated farm management, a farming system that has the objective of producing high quality grapes by using natural resources and regulating mechanisms to replace polluting inputs and to secure sustainable farming.
WINEMAKERS: Paulo Coutinho.
AWARDS/RECOMMENDATIONS
93 Points, Wine Enthusiast
90 Points, Robert Parker
90 Points, Decanter World Wine Awards
17 Points, Vinho Grandes Escolhas (2011 Vintage)
WINE VARIETIES: Moscatel Galego Branco (100%) .
VINIFICATION
Maceration in stainless steel "Lagares" and vats at 20-22ºC. It ages in oak barrels for a minimum of 7 years.
TASTING NOTES
With a beautiful pale amber colour, it has aromas of pear and green apples in a perfect balance with some caramel and honey hints. Some almond notes enrich the aroma due to the ageing in wood. The balance between the sugar and the acidity is excellent, leading us to fresh and citric sensations on one side and the complexity of wines that have aged in barrel on the other. The final is persistent, fresh and complex.
SERVING
To be served chilled with sweet desserts, ice-creams or with foie gras. Serve between 8ºC and 10ºC.
