2021 Harvest
From September 2 to September 20
There was some climate instability in 2021, once again demonstrating the crucial importance of human experience and knowledge of the vineyards.
It was a memorably cool year during development of the vegetative cycle, with a mildly hot summer and rainfall during the harvest. The natural conditions and cool nights contributed to slow and gradual maturation, favouring the balance of the grapes and maintaining the primary aromas, juicy texture and sparkling freshness!
It is a unique and wood-free blend of the main grape varieties of Quinta Nova de Nossa Senhora do Carmo – Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca, Tinta Roriz, Tinta Amarela and Tinto Cão — a wine of authentic and intense flavor that does not need a barrel to be sophisticated. This wine is special not only due to its unique palate, but also because of its ruby color and its youthful aroma, lush and mineral, demonstrating a magnificent balance between the fruit, the dense s wine without wood, a promise that can be enjoyed early or be kept in the cellar and developed for five to seven years.
