100% Jampal. From the producer who single-handedly saved the grape from extinction and is the only producer to make a single variety Jampal. Elegant, with a good acidity in the mouth; 6 months under new French oak provides an added complexity, as does the batonnage. The aroma is full, ample and very imposing. Expect a medley of apricot, banana and lime as well as citrus, backed by soft notes of toast, vanilla and coconut. The palate is unctuous, harmonised and lifted by excellent acidity. Serve with light dishes, fish and shellfish.
The fame of Cheleiros dates back to the Neolithic, passing through the Romans and Moors, but it is in the 50s that the stories and memories of wine begin to characterize the village. The Manzwine project promises to transport you to a time when this village was famous for the quality of its vineyards and orchards, the result of good land, planting on slopes and terraces and a unique micro climate, demarcating the border between the maritime influence and the mild protection of the Cheleiros stream. We present the batch of the first wine made exclusively with the almost extinct Jampal Grape. Elegant, with a good acidity in the mouth; The new barrel gives it an added complexity. The aroma is full, ample and very imposing.
