Made by a woman winemaker Natalia Jessa, we tasted and loved this delicious Portughese red made of native varieties, mostly the famed Touriga Nacional. Aged in oak, this has fleshy fruit flavors of ripe plums and black cherries along with English tea, cola, chocolate and licorice notes, good structure and density. Secondary notess of smoke, violets charred bread and hints of leather follow. This is a fresh and tasty example of red wine from the Dão.  

Made from dry farmed, sustainable/non-certified organic vineyards with granite and clay soils. The small plots that comprise Bergamota are located in the 200-300 meter elevations of the bowl that is the Dão. There are cooling winds that come off the mountain-sides to retain natural acids in the wine. Hand-picked fruit is partially destemmed, allowing for approximately 30% whole cluster co-fermentation. Stainless steel fermentation, with 2-week post-maceration. The wine is racked into used French and Portuguese Oak for 12 months of aging and 6 months in the bottle before release. Minimal SO2 added.
