Porta 6 Lisboa Red
Vintage: 2024
DOC: Lisboa
WINERY: VIDIGAL
WINEMAKER: António Mendes Lopes, António Ventura, Rafael Neuparth and Arnaldo Simões
DESCRIPTION
Superstar Portuguese red which has transformed the category in many markets worldwide. This phenomenon started in the UK really, when we secured a listing with Majestic. A fantastic review on a popular food & drink TV show led to incredible demand, indeed the number of orders placed briefly crashed the retailer’s website!
VITICULTURE / VINIFICATION
Vineyards are located in the Lisboa area where the Atlantic Ocean influences the climate a lot. Soils are clay limestone and the vines were planted on average, around 19 years ago.
The grapes were de-stemmed and crushed after arrival at the winery. The fermentation was in stainless steel tanks with controlled temperature (25ºC).
There is no contact with oak for Porta 6, so it is a wine all about fruit.
TASTING NOTES
Ruby in colour with intense red and black fruit aromas. The palate offers soft and ripe red berries, plum and sweet spice with a long persistent finish.
FOOD MATCH
A great all-rounder, but we recommend with grilled red meats, especially lamb, pizza, pasta and oily fish.
