Mirabilis Branco 2021

Grape Varieties: Viosinho, Gouveio and centuries-old vine.

Soils: Granitic and Schist-granite transition.

Tasting Notes: Mirabilis Branco is a sublime wine, soft and crunchy in the mouth, that uses grapes from centuries-old vines, in particular Viosinho and Gouveio grape varieties, and also many other grape varieties that have very low production levels, which are almost non-existent in the region. The selected wood, primarily French and Hungarian oak, is from the second and third year, with only a small percentage of new wood, in order to avoid marking the flavour and to ensure better and slower integration of the intense fruit. A wine of extreme elegance, that combines freshness, structure and acidity.

Production Mode: Integrated

Vinification: Whole cluster pressing.

Ageing: End of alcoholic fermentation and 9-month ageing in French oak barrels (Tronçais, Vosges, Nevers, Jura) and Hungarian oak barrels. “Batonnâge” every 2 weeks during the first 5 months.

Winemaker: Jorge Alves

Viticulture: Ana Mota
