Quinta dos Carvalhais Dão Colheita Tinto 2019

The Quinta dos Carvalhais Dão Colheita Tinto is a red wine blend consisting of Touriga Nacional, Alfrocheiro, Tinta Roriz and Jaen Tinto grapes. The grapes were hand harvested by variety and by plot. Upon arrival at the winery the grapes were de stemmed, crushed and then gravity fed into stainless-steel fermentation tanks. The different grape varieties were fermented separately. 55% of the wine was aged in 225 litre used French oak barrels for eight months. At the end of this period, the final blend was assembled, and the wine was fined and filtered before bottling. Ruby red in colour. On the nose this wine boasts aromas of blackberry and plum coupled with floral hints of violet and a subtle spiciness. On the palate, velvety tannins create a smooth mouth feel and a vibrant acidity carries the juicy fruit flavours onto the elegant finish.

Vintage Availability

We endeavour to display accurate and current vintages on all our wines listed on the website; however, from time to time stocks of the vintage listed do become exhausted. If this is the case with your order we will always contact you to recommend another vintage of the same wine, if it is still available. If the vintage of a wine is important to you then please leave a note at checkout advising us of this. 

 

Stock Availability

As we are retail stockists, selling from our Ledston shop as well as online, it makes it difficult for us to show a 'real-time' inventory of our wines and spirits online. As such, very occasionally, a wine may be out of stock that the website has allowed you to order.

To ensure a timely delivery, we are happy to substitute your order with a similar wine of equal or higher value and at no additional cost to you!

If this is not an acceptable solution please advise us in the 'Add A Comment' section at the checkout.
