Quinta do Carvalhão Torto – Jaen & Alfrocheiro - Dão DOC 2010

A wine over a decade old that continues to show freshness and elegance — a true testament to Dão's aging potential. This blend of Jaen (Merenzao) and Alfrocheiro comes from vineyards on granite soils at 400 meters altitude, with manual harvesting and careful winemaking, respecting the region's classic profile.

The nose is complex and mature, with stewed red fruits, soft spices, earthy notes, and a balsamic touch. On the palate, silky tannins and still-lively acidity sustain a deep, balanced, and layered wine. A Dão for aging that reaches the glass at its ideal point of maturity.
