Description

Tasting Notes

Aroma: Rounded, generous, with a slight vinous and balanced touch. Fruit aromas such as orange, apricot and plum. Wood aromas: vanilla and old port hull. It's the kind of fruity tawny. Mouth: The attack is smooth and full-bodied. Following the initial unctuous appears a fresh and soft fruit that ends with a slight acid and woody note. Aftertaste: Still noticeable to fresh fruit, surrounded by aging in wood. Good structure and perfect balance between fruit and alcohol.

History

Founded by Adriano Ramos Pinto in 1880, Casa Ramos Pinto rapidly became noted, at the time, for its innovative and enterprising strategy. Associated with quality bottled wines, it began operating on the Brazilian market in the early 20th century and quickly became responsible for half of the wine exported to South America, whilst it was still conquering generations of loyal customers in Portugal and Europe. These were the natural results of a forward thinking strategy, based on the modernisation of selection, batching and ageing circuits, and the special care which Adriano Ramos Pinto devoted to the packaging and promotion of his wines.

The Ramos Pinto wines have therefore become a reference of quality. From the very onset was born a unique collection of art objects, which are displayed today in the recently opened Museum Area - Casa Ramos Pinto. The taste for culture instilled by Adriano Ramos into in the working philosophy of Casa Ramos Pinto, is still alive today. In 1997, Casa Ramos Pinto created the Ervamoira On-Site Museum, aimed at environmental, oenological, archaeological and anthropological research of the Vale do Côa. Researchers also have at their disposal the Historical Archives in Vila Nova de Gaia, with a precious collection of documents on the production and export of wines from the late 19th century.

Aware that the quality of its wines were confined to the earth of the wine producing Douro, Casa Ramos Pinto meticulously studied this Demarcated Region, and eventually became the owners of a number of estates with very special characteristics. The objective was to ensure the control and quality of the whole production process. By perfecting its wines, Ramos Pinto created unique nectars with its own signature.

Casa Ramos Pinto established a strict self-production policy, meaning that it only produces wines with grapes from its own estates. With plenty of determination and substantial investment, Ramos Pinto has set planting targets that it has managed to meet over the years. Our planted area has now stabilised at a total of 360 hectares in the Douro Region.
