Casa Ferreirinha Vinha Grande Douro 2023 75cl
Casa Ferreirinha Vinha Grande Douro Tinto is a refined and expressive red blend that embodies the essence of the Douro Valley's diverse terroirs and winemaking tradition. Crafted under the direction of winemaker Luís Sottomayor, this wine reflects the house's hallmark balance of elegance, freshness and depth—delivering an authentic expression of the Douro's complexity and charm.. Why You'll Love It. This is Douro red wine at its finest—refined, expressive, and beautifully balanced. Casa Ferreirinha was the first producer in the Douro Valley to focus exclusively on table wines rather than Port. Founded in 1952 by Fernando Nicolau de Almeida, the visionary behind the legendary Barca-Velha, Casa Ferreirinha revolutionised Portuguese winemaking. Named in honour of the iconic Dona Antónia Ferreira, a pioneering figure in the region's history, the estate continues to produce wines that capture the Douro's natural richness, restraint and refinement.. Vineyard & Production. The grapes for Vinha Grande are sourced from prime vineyard sites across the Cima Corgo (including Quinta do Seixo) and the Douro Superior (including Quinta da Leda). The warmer Douro Superior contributes structure and body, while the cooler Cima Corgo adds finesse and vibrant acidity. Soils are predominantly schist, a slate-like rock that fractures vertically, allowing vines to root deeply in search of water and minerals. Vinification takes place at the state-of-the-art wineries of Quinta do Seixo and Quinta da Leda. Grapes are destemmed and gently crushed before fermentation in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks to ensure precise extraction of colour, tannins and aromatics. The wine is then matured in used French oak barrels for around 12 months, enhancing complexity and texture while preserving the purity of the fruit.. Tasting Notes. This elegant Douro red displays a ruby red colour. The nose opens with expressive aromas of raspberry, blackberry and wild cherry, intertwined with hints of cedar, spice and tobacco. The palate is smooth and balanced, offering ripe fruit flavours, fine-grained tannins and refreshing acidity. The finish is long and elegant, with subtle oak and mineral nuances.. Perfect Pairings. A versatile food wine, perfect with grilled meats, roast lamb, Mediterranean-inspired dishes such as vegetable stews or mushroom risotto, aged cheeses, or hearty casseroles. Also excellent with Portuguese cuisine.. The Blend. 36% Touriga Franca, 33% Touriga Nacional, 25% Tinta Roriz, 6% Tinta Barroca from Douro, Portugal
