Quinta de São Francisco estate is located in the Lisbon wine region, within the defined Obidos area. The microclimate of the Serra de Montejunto and the Atlantic Ocean give the wines a unique freshness, balance and character.
The vineyards are planted on rolling slopes of clayey loam soil. This red wine is made from the grapes Castelão (60%), Aragonez (20%) and Touriga Nacional (20%).
These grapes are handpicked. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks at temperatures between 25°C and 27°C for 15 days. After aging for 12 months in both French and American oak barrels, the wine is bottled.
The Obidos red has an intense ruby red color. Aromas of warm ripe red fruit, strawberry jam, stewed fig and chocolate. Smooth wine with a spicy and long finish.
A nice piece of meat with grilled vegetables will pair perfectly with this wine.
Thanks to its fermentation in stainless steel, the wine retains some of its freshness, making it also well suited alongside grilled fish with cream sauce.
Serving temperature between 16-18°C.
