Dão - Silgueiros
100% Alfrocheiro
Floral scent of jasmine and chamomile. Very delicate red fruits. Very elegant, soft and velvety, full of flavour, smooth and silky till the end.
Alfrocheiro appeared in the Dao region after phylloxera. Its origin is unknown. These vineyards are located in the sub-region of Silgueiros at an altitude between 350-400 meters. The vine is grown within a program of integrated protection, the use of herbicides is forbidden. Infestation control is carried out through soil movement. Grape-picking is done by hand, caste by caste, when the ideal point of ripeness is reached, normally around the second fortnight of September. The harvest is collected in small 10kg boxes.
