The Red Wine Quinta S. Simao Aguieira is an authentic expression of the winemaking traditions that have made the demarcated region of Dão famous. Coming from the Quinta where the largest continuous vineyard of this region is located, this wine reflects the richness of the terroir and the diversity of the grape varieties used in its production.
The predominant grape varieties in this wine are Touriga-Nacional (55%), Jaén (20%), Alfrocheiro (15%), and Tinta-Roriz (10%), each contributing their unique characteristics to the whole. Each of the Quintas Borges has its own particularities, resulting in different and unique wines that highlight the specificities of each region.
The vinification and aging process is carried out with great attention to detail. After the complete destemming of the grapes, a brief pre-fermentative maceration is carried out, followed by fermentation in skin contact for 6-8 days at a controlled temperature of 26-28°C, with relatively frequent pump-overs. Subsequently, malolactic fermentation takes place. Part of the wine ages in stainless steel tanks, while another part undergoes a period of aging in French oak vats for 15 months.
The bottling process is carried out under special conditions, with processing in an inert atmosphere and total deoxygenation of the bottle, ensuring that the wine preserves its purity and character.
This Red Wine Quinta S. Simao Aguieira is a vinicultural gem that captures the essence and authenticity of the Dão region, offering a unique sensory experience to those who taste it. With its rich complexity and distinctive character, it is an ideal choice for those looking to explore the diversity and quality of Portuguese wines.
