Charme Tinto
From 70-100 year old vines rooted in the schist soils of Vale de Mendiz, this blend of Tinta Roriz, Touriga Franca, and others was fermented whole clusters with stems in granite lagares, finishing off in French barriques where it rests for 18 months. Pouring a lighter crimson hue, this medium (13%) Charme charms with rockrose and fragrant wild plum over a schistous underlay, framed with long, fine, delicate tannins, and lofted with an easy buoyant acidity. Such purity and finesse here, with a delicate touch and layers of complexity, drinking beautifully now and with time in your cellar.
"The 2022 Charme offers up floral aromas of roses, hibiscus flowers, cherries and raspberries. The palate is medium- to full-bodied with silky, subtle tannins, red fruit character and a delicate finish. An almost ethereal wine that maintains depth and complexity. This is made from a blend of tinta roriz, touriga franca and others from old vineyards in Vale de Mendiz. Fermented with 100% whole clusters in lagars. Aged for around 18 months in French oak. Already gorgeous but will definitely evolve favorably. Drink or hold." - 97 points, James Suckling, September 11, 2024.
