Grape Varieties: 60% Folgazão, 40% Rabigato.

Tasting Notes: This Grande Reserva shows rich and vibrant aromas, with notes of stone fruit enveloped by suggestions of spice and brioche and hints of smoke. It displays good unctuousness, well-balanced with its acidity, and its freshness and persistence are thoroughly engaging.

Vinification and Ageing: The grapes used to make this wine were handpicked unusually early, at the end of August, for 2017 was an extremely dry and hot year. They were then carried in 20kg crates to the winery in Quinta São Luiz, where they were again selected on the sorting table. After the clusters of grapes were pressed whole, the must fermented in French oak barrels of 300 litres, in which it matured from 2017 to 2021. The final blend is the result of the selection of the best barrels of those four years, expressing the full potential of these two grape varieties from such a unique terroir.

Service Temperature and Pairing: Serve at a temperature between 12 - 14ºC. Kopke suggests to pair this Folgazão & Rabigato with seafood, oily fish and white meat.

Winemaker: Ricardo Macedo
