Casa de Mouraz - 2017 - Elfa Tinto

Casa de Mouraz's Elfa 2017 is a testament to the diversity and complexity of the Dão region. This wine is a blend of nearly 30 indigenous grape varieties, each contributing its unique character to the final product.

Sourced from a venerable, 80-year-old vineyard with granite soil, the grapes for Elfa are hand-harvested at peak ripeness. The wine undergoes co-fermentation in stainless steel tanks, followed by a prolonged maceration to extract maximum color, flavor, and tannin. The resulting wine is then aged in stainless steel for two years, preserving its vibrant fruitiness and freshness.

The 2017 Elfa is a captivating blend of red and black fruits with spice and earth notes. The palate is medium-bodied, with silky tannins and a long, elegant finish. This wine is a true expression of the Dão terroir and a must-try for enthusiasts seeking unique and authentic wines.
