Tasting note

We are very happy to introduce it to you as the Edição Especial, the top wine at Cabriz! Dão region might have been created with wine making in mind, as we couldn't have better conditions for red wines like this. We tend to say it is the "burgundy of Portugal"! Surrounded by mountains, the blend on this wine really show the balance of alcohol, concentration of flavours & tannins of this expressive wine.

With 2 months of cuvaison, 12 months in French oak barrels. The 50% new French oak barrel & 50% second use, give it body & structure for a smooth elegance, without becoming too over powering. Touriga Nacional ploys a noble part. This is then carefully blended with Alfrocheiro & Aragonez for the delicate structure tannins & blackberries aromas.

Pair with Layered duck meat, rice, bacon & other vegetables, belly pork, rye bread & creamy intense cow milk cheeses (try Queueing do Sierra from Portugal!).

Region

Dao

Dão, located in central Portugal, is a historic and esteemed wine region known for its distinctive and elegant wines. Surrounded by the mountains of the Serra da Estrela and Serra do Caramulo, the Dão region benefits from a temperate climate with significant temperature variations between day and night, ideal for viticulture.
Historically, it has been a significant wine-producing area since Roman times, with formal wine cultivation dating back to the 19th century. The area is renowned for its red wines made from indigenous varieties such as Touriga Nacional, Tinta Roriz, and Jaen, which produce structured, complex reds with dark fruit flavours, spicy notes, and good ageing potential. It is also known for its aromatic whites, particularly from the Encruzado grape, offering crisp acidity and notes of citrus and mineral.
The combination of its rich history, unique terroir, and a focus on both traditional and modern winemaking techniques makes Dão a distinguished and captivating wine region.
