Quinta de Santa Eufémia LBV Port, Douro, Portugal, 2011 (375mL)
Overview of the Wine
Situated on the left side of the river Douro, with over 50 hectares under vines, the vineyard produces grapes of the richest varieties, trodden in the traditional way and fermented on granite vats in order to extract their finest essences.The wine is aged in oak casks before being selectively blended to satisfy the most refined palates.
Where are our vineyards (Vale do Conde and Eirados) and our cellar, we find Roman remains dated from the first century. They were the ones who started the wine production.
Our family came to the Douro in the 17th century but it is our great-grandfather Bernardo Rodrigues de Carvalho who in 1864 started a process of growth and acquisition of vineyards and production of the Port Quinta Santa Eufemia

Tasting Notes
Dark brown. Intense aromas and flavors with great complexity in the mouth. Very structured, with a long finish, due to the great potential of the grapes used in its production and the excellence of the barrels in which it aged.
