Quinta de Chocapalha CH Lisboa Red 2019

Description

CH by Chocapalha is a wine that showcases the true character of Touriga Nacional, Portugal’s most iconic grape variety. It is crafted with grapes that are crushed by foot in granite Lagares, a centuries-old method that preserves the freshness and complexity of the fruit. Then, it is aged for two years in French oak barrels, adding layers of richness and elegance. The result is a wine that bursts with aromas of dark berries, leather and violet and delivers a powerful palate of black currant and raspberry, balanced by firm tannins and a long, satisfying finish. This is a wine that deserves to be savoured with hearty dishes like slow-roasted brisket or braised lamb shanks.

Quinta de Chocapalha

Quinta de Chocapalha was founded in 1987 when Alice and Paulo were looking for a property where they could make great quality wine. They purchased 110 acres of nearly abandoned vineyards. The family embarked on an investment programme to replant and regraft the vines with both indigenous and international varieties. In 2000 Sandra Tavares, the youngest daughter, made her debut as a winemaker, passionate and eager to produce wine with only the best grapes found on the estate.

Lisbon

Lisbon, the wine region surrounding Portugal's vibrant capital city, is celebrated for its diverse and high-quality wines, benefiting from a Mediterranean climate with a mix of coastal and inland influences. The area’s varied terroirs and proximity to the Atlantic Ocean contribute to its unique wine characteristics.
Lisbon is particularly known for its robust reds, including those made from indigenous grapes such as Castelão and Touriga Nacional, which offer rich fruit flavours and well-structured profiles. It also excels in producing whites, notably from the Arinto and Fernão Pires grapes, known for their crisp acidity, fresh fruit notes, and aromatic qualities.
Historically, Lisbon's wine trade has been significant, with the city's port serving as a crucial hub for the export of Portuguese wines. The region blends traditional winemaking practices with modern techniques, providing a diverse and evolving wine experience that reflects its rich heritage and dynamic climate.
