2021 Inves las Setas, Trás-os-Montes Portugal
$22.99
The Las Setas is a single vineyard in the Arribas region of Tras-os-Montes. It is made up of a diverse planting of centenarian bush vines, around 60% of which are red grapes, and 40% white grapes. The red grapes are mostly Tinta Gorda (often called Juan Garcia on the Spanish side of the border), the white grapes mostly Malvasia Fina, Dona Branca, and Síria. Whole clusters are fermented in lagar, followed by a quick aging in used 225L barrels. The vineyard has never been registered with the DOC, so they are not allowed to vintage date the wine, but it is all 2021 fruit.
