The Winery

Quinta de Ramozeiros is located on a hill in one of the most beautiful wine-growing areas in the world - the Douro Valley. Here, tradition meets innovation and is harmoniously brought together by the team of winemakers so that the wine reflects the terroir while possessing an appealing, modern fruit expression. Of the total 18.8 hectares of vineyards, about 15 hectares have been newly planted with the classic autochthonous grape varieties. The rest is over 80-year-old vines that give the wines a special depth.

The winery is committed to an ethical protocol of love and responsibility for the soil, the vineyards, the people and nature as a whole. They use sustainable farming methods that support biodiversity and the local ecosystem. In addition to native grape varieties, we grow olive, almond and fruit trees, as well as a vegetable garden

Vinification

Must fermentation of fully destemmed grapes in open traditional granite lagares where the grapes are trodden with the feet. This classic method is considered particularly gentle and is used for the best grapes from the oldest vines. This is followed by temperature-controlled fermentation in stainless steel tanks with délestage (submersion of the marc). Once fermentation is complete, the wine is aged for 16 months in new French oak barrels.

The wine

Deep ruby red with a dark core. Elegant and fruity on the nose with aromas of juicy, ripe dark fruits and berries paired with spicy notes from the oak. On the palate, the flavours are reflected and the wine appears juicy and fresh, with ripe, soft tannins, well-integrated acidity and well-dosed use of wood. The Quinta de Ramozeiros has an incredibly silky finish with sweet notes and toasty flavours in the pleasant finish.

Decant one hour prior to serving so that the wine can “open and breathe” and serve it at 16º/18º C.
