Maçanita Vinhos, Peso da Régua, Douro
The Maçanita Vinhos project was created by characterful siblings Joana and António Maçanita in the Douro back in 2011. Having worked together in over 14 wineries around the country, they wanted the new project to reflect their experiences and aspirations; lots of laughter, lots of arguments and an ethos of questioning the existing way of doing things. Over the intervening years, Maçanita Vinhos have managed to encompass the diversity of the terroir of the Douro Valley in its purest and most faithful form. The wines of Maçanita express each facet of this spectacular landscape; the “high-altitude Douro”, the “hot schist Douro”, the “cold granite Douro” all through indigenous grape varieties from old vines and a non-interventionist approach. |
Violet ruby concentrated colour. Intense nose, with ripe floral notes and black fruit from the Touriga Nacional, combined with the aroma of red fruit from the Tinta Roriz. Full-bodied, round and with good persistence.
Grapes: 80% Old Vineyard Touriga Naciona and Vinhas Velhas, 20% Sousão
