2024 Cortes de Cima Palhete

Vinho Biológico
Syrah and Viognier
Red wine

A collaboration between 3 friends – Anna Jørgensen and Daniel and Kalina Niepoort, which falls into the NatCool umbrella. Inspired by local ancient vinification techniques, Palhete is the traditional Portuguese designation of a wine made from both white and red grapes, as the old vineyards were often mixed field blends. Since the Romans were in our region thousands of years ago, we have been vinifying wines in Talhas, the local name for clay amphora. This is a refreshed tribute to our local winemaking heritage.A flintstone reduction dissipates to reveal gorgeous aromas of red cherries and raspberries. The red fruits carry on to the juicy palate intermingles with herbaceous undertones. Fresh, vibrant and briming with energy.
