Castelao (sin. Periquita) is a local light coloured grape varietal that has fallen out of fashion in this era of big concentrated reds. Studies show that Castelao originated from this region, where it still remains the 3rd most planted varietal. Although, its current role in the local wines tend to be secondary. The local ancients say that Castelao’s talent lies in its ageing capacity and not on its concentration, “that it needs time”. So, with this quest in mind we have given this “Tinto de Castelao” time. Time to macerate (35 days), time to barrel age (18 months), time to bottle age (12 months) and time to be itself. Itself in its fragile colour, elegant body and persistant tannins. The outcome? A nostalgic smile of tasting something from the past.
