Quinta do Valle Longo Colheita 2020: ripe plums and cherries, elegant and intense.
Tasting note
Ruby red, with very good intensity. Very elegant, complex and intense, with aromas of ripe fruit such as plums and cherries, soft tannins and an elegant, long finish.
The story
Quinta do Valle Longo is a beautiful Vallegre estate of just 10 ha, right on the Douro at the mouth of the Tedo. Only three varieties are planted, Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca and Tinta Roriz, all classified A. Although the vines are relatively young, they give wines of excellent quality.
Food pairing
Excellent with pasta dishes and semi-mature cheeses.
The producer
Vallegre is based at Quinta da Vista Alegre, in the Cima Corgo, on the right bank of the Douro between the mouth of the Pinhão and Covas do Douro. The quinta’s vineyards have been making wine since the 19th century. The quinta belongs to the Cunha Barros family, and in 1998 the company took the name Vallegre, a blend of its two main quintas: Valle Longo and Vista Alegre.
At Quinta da Vista Alegre the grapes for Port are still foot-trodden in old stone lagares. Besides Port, Vallegre also makes unfortified Douro wines.
