2020 Quinta de Sant'Ana Vinha do Pinhal Pinot Noir

£34.00

From a very special, miniscule plot of less than 0.25ha comes this lovely Pinot Noir. This vineyard is shaded from the evening sun by a woodland of Stone Pine trees hence the name ‘Vinha do Pinhal’.

As ever with Qunita de Sant'Ana, careful selection goes into picking the right grapes for the wine.

To achieve a vibrant colour wonderful spectrum of flavours, the team engaged in de-stemming and crushing 70% of the fruit with the remainder fermented as whole bunches. Further colour and flavour were extracted through regular punch-downs, in stone tanks, while malolactic fermentation took place in French oak barrels.

The wine was aged in seasoned, 4+ year old, oak barrels for 10 months.

Tasting Note: Characteristic of a light, garnet hue, enticing aromas of pomegranate, tart cherries, and wild berries, accompanied by a tart top note of blood orange and grapefruit, with a hint of earthen wetness, spices and woodland in its undertones. An ideal balance in composition, with a bright, zesty acidity and subtle, seamlessly combined tannins. A pleasing and fragrant finish with alluring elegance.

Origin: Lisbon, Portugal

Alcohol: 13.5%

Blend: Pinot Noir

Quinta de Sant'Ana

This romantic Quinta, bordering with the Tapada de Mafra, (formerly the Portuguese King’s hunting grounds), dates back to 1633 and has been lived in by many different owners from the most varied backgrounds. One thing they all shared: a fascination for its rolling hills and fertile soils where Lisbon’s groceries grew. Now, it is home to a Caviste Exclusive, that produces wines of complexity, flavour, passion, and, sheer quality.
