The Quinta de Baixo Syrah shows a beautiful purple colour of medium concentration. Still very young in aroma, it develops exciting notes of black fruits and herbs. Complex and very elegant, with notes of black pepper and stone that perfectly reflect the character of this grape variety. On the palate a very elegant wine with a remarkable balance. Precise, fine and with good natural acidity. The barrel ageing gives it firm but very harmonious tannins. Very long finish with notes of wild berries and spices.

The Syrah grapes were vinified in traditional Lagares and gently crushed with the feet in the old way. The wine ferments and matures for 20 months in a single old wooden barrel (2500 L), without extraction.
