Quinta de Arcossó
In the Ribeira de
Oura, between Vidago and Chaves, Tras-os-Montes Region, in the North of
Portugal, we find an unique place for the production of wine, Quinta de
Arcossó.
Situated in a Region
with deep wine traditions that go back to the pre-roman occupation of The
Iberian Peninsula, its vineyards are installed in a convex slope with a
southern sun exposition at 400mts altitude with a 20% steep.
In its granitic soil
grow vineyards species carefully selected and totally adapted to the region. An
Adega projected and built to express all the potential in the grapes and
minimize mechanical operations.
Result of the perfect
harmony between Nature and Man, in the 12 hectares of the Quinta de Arcossó is
produced since 2005, wines of Excellence!
Entirely artisan production,
complemented with low intervention but high surveillance oenology. All the red
wines are transformed by foot treading, while the white and rosé wines, result
from a harvest that occurs before sunrise.
The constant search
for perfection and quality in the winemaking process reaches its climax with
the Quinta de Arcossó Superior, worthy of the finest jewelry, result of the
manual selection berry by berry and fermentation in noble wood barrels.
In each bottle of
Quinta de Arcossó unique wines are found, packed with complex aromas, topped by
dense and long aftertastes.
