The name TRUFA was chosen because there are several analogies between this wine and a truffle: Both come from Earth, are rare and exclusive; Both have a unique flavor and great quality; Both help to enrich and make a meal unique.
Vineyard: TRUFA is a wine produced with grapes from old vines (+ 60 years) from Quinta do Olival Velho, located on the left bank of the Douro River, between Régua and Pinhão. The vineyard in schist terrain has a mixture of approximately 30 different autochthonous varieties, and is located between 300/350mts of altitude with exposure to the North, which gives the wine a great freshness. With an average production of 250g/strain, these vineyards produce grapes of exceptional quality.
Vinification: After careful manual selection on the selection mat, the grapes were destemmed and fermented in a Granite Lagar with treading for 7 days.
Ageing: After malolactic fermentation, the wine aged for 18 months in French Oak barrels, 40% of which were new and the rest used.
Tasting Notes: TRUFA has a very concentrated and intense aroma, with notes of exotic fruit. In the mouth it is full-bodied, with notes of wild berries, with tannins still very present, but of great quality. It is very complex, fresh and persistent.
Winemaker: Francisco Ferreira
