Featuring a luminous appearance, it shows a bright red colour, strong and complex aromas of macerated black fruits, harmoniously balanced by imposing and austere tannins, along with a soft fragrance of wood barrel and great acidity.

Quinta do Monte Xisto is a red wine, produced exclusively with autochthonous red grapes of Quinta do Monte Xisto such as Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca and Sousão in the Douro wine region.

The wine has been transferred to French oak barrels, where it has stayed for 18 months, in contact of fine lees and been subjected to a regular stirring, prior to being bottled. The wine has matured for a further one year into the bottle into the cellar.
