11 years, that was the exact time it took to design, grow and mature a wine created to receive the name Casa da Passarella and perpetuate the heritage, which extends for well over a century.

It was born of its own seven vineyards, which include several centuries-old plots, and which have an unusual variety of more than 20 autocthonous castes. A careful choice was made of the exact moment for the harvest, on October 11, 2011.

As always at Casa da Passarella, vinification was carried out in a granite press and two winters later, on May 31, 2013, a long process of maturation in the bottle began. Since, in April 2022, the meticulous task of manual recorking was carried out.

Nine years of waiting gave rise to a ruby red wine, intense and of great aromatic complexity, where red fruit with spices and a balsamic touch predominates.

From the vineyard to the wine, this 2011 Harvest is the heir of fascinating stories - of traditions that were shared, from parents to children, both by great names in Portuguese oenology from the past, and by humble and wise people for whom these lands have no secrets. .
