Ramos Pinto Duas Quintas Tinto 2021

Ramos Pinto Duas Quintas Tinto is dark red with bright cherry hues. Incredibly aromatic nose, with red berries, fresh spices and touches of oak which follow though to the palate. Full bodied with a lovely line of freshness, everything is in balance Duas Quintas gets its name from the two estates the fruit is grown for the wines – Quinta de Ervamoira and Quinta do Bons Ares. Ervamoira lies in a rocky area on the banks of the river Côa, where the weather is hot and dry. This adds density and body to the wines. It was the first Quinta in the Douro where, in contrast to tradition, individual vineyard blocks were planted with a single variety, selected for the grape’s most appropriate soil and climate. Bons Ares is a granite vineyard of higher elevation with cool growing conditions, adding freshness and vivacity. Duas Quintas wines really showcase the best that the Douro has to offer, full-bodied, full of fresh fruit (mixed berries, plums) with excellent tannins that provide structure and a long finish.
