Maçanita Letra F Tinto 2022

Maçanita Letra F Tinto 2022

Portugal > Douro

Sustainable and Woman Owner/Producer

Maçanita's 2022 Letra F Tinto is a distinctive red blend from Portugal's Douro region, crafted from over 20 co-planted red and white grape varieties, including many from 70- to 110-year-old vines. The vineyards are situated at altitudes ranging from 480 to 720 meters, contributing to the wine's fresh and lively character.

In the glass, it displays an open ruby color. The nose reveals mineral notes, white flowers, and red fruit aromas. On the palate, it is fresh and lively, with well-marked acidity, balancing the intensity and concentration typical of old vines. This wine pairs well with tartares, grilled meats, and stronger cheeses.

The name "Letra F" refers to the Douro's vineyard classification system, where "Letra A" denotes the highest quality vineyards. Historically, "Letra F" vineyards were considered less desirable for port production, but they are now recognized for producing fresh, elegant wines. Maçanita's commitment to showcasing the unique terroir of these high-altitude, old-vine vineyards is evident in this wine, offering a fresh and aromatic expression of the Douro.
