Tinta Francisca 2015
Region: Douro
Producer: Sogrape Vinhos
This is one of the coveted 'limited editions' that Ferreirinha releases from time to time. It is a strikingly refined wine. So we had no hesitation in claiming a good portion of the minuscule production with a purchase of 300 bottles.| Volume | 75.0cl |
| Grape Variety | Tinta Francisca |
| Drinking window | 2024-2026 |
| Alc. | 13.5% |
| Vinification | Unlike most of Ferreirinha's other wines, the grapes for this cuvée do not come from Quinta da Leda in the Douro Superior but from Quinta do Seixo in the Cima Corgo, the central part of the Douro. The slightly less warm climate there, helps to achieve the finesse of this wine.<br />The wine was vinified in inox tanks |
| Ripening | 24 months in used oak barrels |
