CARM Tinto

We selected grapes of the Tinta Roriz, Touriga Franca, and Touriga Nacional varieties, all produced on our Estate farms, to create a balanced wine with the firm tannins of Tinta Roriz, the rock rose notes, the soft tannins of Touriga Franca, and the aromas of black fruits and berries and the strong fresh floral notes of Touriga Nacional.

The year 2019 was a dry year characterized by a cold Winter, a warm Spring, and a mild Summer, with some occasional peaks of high temperatures during the Summer. These conditions produced grapes with great aromatic expression and balanced alcohol levels that gave rise to optimal-quality wines.

We had an exceptional harvest in the Douro Superior. The wine is vinified in CARM's Winery, at Quinta das Marvalhas in Almendra, the heart of Douro Superior.

The Winery is equipped with the latest technology and enables complete control of temperature, essential for our region of extreme climates. After grapes arrive at the winery, we eliminate clusters that are not in perfect condition. After total de-stemming, the grapes are crushed softly and passed through a thermal shock, followed by a period of cold pre-fermentative maceration for about 12 to 24 hours. The must is transferred to broad and low fermentation stainless steel vats, where the maceration occurs for eight days at 22°C.
