2019 | Luis Seabra | Mono C Castelao

Bright violet. On the nose, snappy aromas of red and blue fruit, overlaid with a distinct schist mineral note. On the palate, bright and punchy, with sour cherry, plum, tart blueberry tightly wrapped in floral and mineral tones. Mouthwatering acidity and soft skin tannin provide lovely balance to the fruit.

Producer Information

After many years working for others it was time to follow my own path, in 2013 Luis Seabra Vinhos was born, the mission is to create wines that tell about the place where they are coming from, made with a minimal intervention philosophy, respecting their nature and character. We want our wines to be able to show the different soils where the vineyards are planted, the different altitudes and exposures, their differences, and similarities With the conscience that this is just the first steps of a long road, the adventure is still to discover the old and unknown vineyards that resist over the years. We want above all to create unique wines. Over these years I developed a special relationship with some of the old vines. Those ones are not lush and their trunks mostly are not thick and imposing. On the contrary - they are slender and twisted, have their own serenity coming from age. They respond more calmly than the other vineyards to various weather conditions, holding better the heat peaks and water stress and also resisting better the rain that insists on dropping before the harvest. Those vineyards have a singular character given by the site where they are planted and the varieties that make up the mixture. If we respect the grapes individuality in the winery the wines will be as the vineyards - discrete, not exuberant and with a depth and complexity coming from the long years of experience.
