About this wine
The grapes to produce the “Esteva” Douro Tinto Casa Ferreirinha, were gently destemmed and crushed and then transferred into stainless-steel tanks. Fermentation took place at a controlled temperature of 25°C in order to preserve the bright fruit flavours of the grapes. The wine is unoaked in order to retain the vibrancy of the fruit flavours and was kept in stainless steel until the final blend was carefully assembled and then bottled.
The Esteva Douro Tinto is a blend of Tinta Roriz, Tinta Barroca, Touriga Franca and Touriga Nacional from vineyards across the Douro Valley, with fruit from higher altitude vineyards, such as Quinta do Sairrão, bringing a refreshing lift to the blend. The soil in the Douro Valley is made up of schist – a dense, slate-like metamorphic rock that fractures vertically, allowing the vine roots to delve deep to access water reserves to sustain them during the hot Douro summers. The poor quality of the soil forces the vines to produce low yields of very concentrated grapes.
