Infinitude

An original bet on a classic French grape variety, planted on a hillside, in clay-limestone soils, at about 5 km from the Atlantic Coast and at an average altitude of 90 m. A bucolic plot nestled among cedar and cork oak forests.
This wine is the result of a careful vinification using the classic process of “bica aberta” (open skimming), with total destemming. The resulting must decanted statically for 18 hours and fermented in stainless steel tanks with temperature control (16-18ºC) for 14 days. 40% of the blend finished fermentation in restored French oak barrels, where it remained for 7 months in contact with the lees.

Infinitude

Like a life, a wine is also the visible result of an infinity of events. It is a living work, never finished, always evolving. This is how the wines were born in Quinta da Azenha in Colares, in the vineyards of the Osorio family of Vasconcelos Jardim Gonçalves. This is a family project, fruit of the desire to give continuity to the memory of generations producing wine with roots in Madeira and Douro. And that now extends to the millennial region of Colares, one of the oldest in Portugal, whose origin goes back to 1255, when D. Afonso III started the first vines from France. Cultivated in the recovery of the Sintra mountain range, the Pinot Noir and Merlot castes find a microclimate protected from the Atlantic winds, with dewy mornings and mist-tempered summers. Planted in “hard ground” soil, they are harvested separately and the grapes are carefully vinified by the classic “tanning” process. The stage is followed in small oak barrels in the mythical Colares Cooperative Winery. The result is dry, delicate wines with salty notes. Full of complexity and freshness, with great potential for bottle aging. An elegant invitation to celebrate, enjoy or simply contemplate on a multitude of occasions.
