Nuno Mira do Ó is one of Portugal's foremost viticulturalists and winemakers, making wines from the historic Dão region. Grapes for these and Vidente are grown by Nuno Matos at Quinta da Turquide in Silgueiros at an altitude of 500 metres on granite-rich soils and subject to a large temperature shifts as a result of the Serra do Caramulo from the west and Serra da Estrela from the south-east.
Nuno Matos takes a minimal intervention approach to winemaking. Manual harvest followed by natural slow fermentation in steel tanks. Jaen (mencia), Alfrocheiro, Rufete, Touriga Nacional, Tinta Roriz are co-fermented together before spending a further 10 months in old oak barrels..
Heady wine with a fruit reduction of cherries, cassis and plums with hints of sweet spice and cocao.
