Description

Bright lemon yellow. Complex aroma with pronounced white fruit flesh notes, well integrated into smoky roasted aromas. Notes of lime and wet stone, an ensemble in constant crescendo with multiple layers. Textured palate with subtlety and creaminess. Full and well-balanced by a vertical and tension-filled acidity. A finely crafted, long-lasting ensemble. Long finish. A classic.

Vinification

Cuvée wine from a single vineyard. The grapes for this wine come from our plot in Girabolhos, the vineyard "Vinha do Torreão." The Cuvée is mainly characterized by the grape varieties Bical, Malvasia Fina, Cerceal-Branco, and Encruzado.
Direct pressing of whole grapes. Static clarification for 24 to 36 hours. Fermentation begins in a stainless steel tank. About halfway through the fermentation process, the wine is transferred to 500-liter barrels: one-third new Hungarian oak and two-thirds second-fill French oak barrels.
Subsequently, the wine matured for about 10 months on the fine lees, without batonnage. Short further maturation and light filtration before bottling.

Oenologist
Tiago Macena

Código Wine comes from the Serra da Estrela subregion in the Dão - one of the oldest and most independent wine regions in Portugal. Behind the project is oenologist Tiago Macena, who reinterprets the Dão's indigenous grape varieties: Encruzado, Bical, Uva Cão, Touriga Nacional - each bottle is an independent expression of the area, vinified in oak barrels and traditional clay amphoras.

The name says it all: Código – secret code. Macena decodes what the vines and terroir of the Serra da Estrela have to say. The result is wines with character and depth, far from uniform international tastes.
