Contraste Tinto Douro Conceito Vinhos

The Contraste Tinto is a deep dark red with beautiful violet reflections and sometimes heavy tears on the edge of the glass.

Spectacular fruit, great variety of aromas, lots of freshness, elegantly stylish but wonderfully delicious

Immediately after opening, notes of cassis and blackberry are presented, which are complemented by spice notes (laurel and pepper) after a while. The more you drink, the more aromas come into their own - a real stroke of luck. The wine impresses with its power, finesse and elegance, and at a very fair price.

Goes very well with cheeses such as Epoisses, Brie, Taleggio, with salami and grilled meats and especially with oily fish such as sardines, mackerel and tuna.

Note: Since the wine is not filtered, sediment may form.

Anyone interested in wines from the Douro Valley cannot ignore Rita Marques Ferreira. She is currently one of the most highly traded winemakers of the new generation in this region. Their wines regularly receive very high ratings from international wine critics.

Rita's family has been growing wine in the upper Douro for several generations. She herself learned her trade in Bordeaux and then worked as a "Flying Winemaker" in New Zealand and South Africa. Now she has returned to her roots and holds the scepter of the winery firmly in her hand. An impressive 85 hectares of vineyards are cultivated by hand at 500 meters above sea level. The procedure is generally very natural with the conscious avoidance of herbicides and systemic pesticides. She sells part of the harvest to other wineries. Every year she selects the best vineyards for her own winery and uses them to produce elegant, fresh wines with plenty of freshness and minerality. Everything is well thought out because Rita has a concept. Hence the name: Conceito.
