Quevedo Cláudia’s Reserva 2021 Branco Douro 75cl

Roaming freely in the cork oak forests, where it feeds mainly on acorns, the Alentejo pig, an autochthonous Portuguese species, is the only survivor of grazing pigs in Europe. Due to the way it marks the landscape and preserves the Mediterranean forest in the region, it is a heritage of the Alentejo. It is also a gastronomic treasure and an invitation to pleasure. By associating it with this wine, we combine, at the table, two major symbols of the Alentejo.

Vinification

The grapes are harvested at the optimum point to guarantee their acidity and freshness. The must is obtained through direct pressing and is then decanted at low temperatures. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel vats at 16ºC.

Maturation

After fermentation, the wine stays on fine lees for 3 months.
