Vale da Mata is the name of a small, old vineyard located in the foothills of Serra de Aire, in Cortes. The vineyard has a maritime climate and is influenced by the Atlantic Ocean.
The wine displays floral notes combined with lively red fruits and well-integrated oak. Smooth and round on the palate, with a bright acidity that leaves a vibrant, lifted finish.
The winemaking respects the expression of its terroir, cultivating the vines sustainably and using minimal intervention in the winery. They use only wild yeasts in the wines, and all operations, from winter pruning to harvesting, are carried out manually.
