Bluníssima is a wine with a deep ruby ​​colour, with an aroma of ripe red fruit, forest and menthol notes and pleasant hints of leather. Well-integrated wood brings sweet spices, all set against a limestone background. In the mouth it is angular and elegant, with a captivating body and freshness, structured, with robust but delicate tannins. The finish is enveloping and long-lasting.

  • Soil: Located on the Moinho do Céu site, in the Arruda dos Vinhos region, flanked by the Atlantic and the Tejo. The sedimentary geological units date back to the Jurassic. The vineyard is located in a narrow strip called the Amaral coral limestones on clay-limestone soil. It is located on a sunny and windy plateau at an altitude of 313 metres. It has a NW – SSE orientation and is trained in a bilateral cordon.
  • Winemaking: The grapes were hand-picked and sorted into small 20 kg boxes. In the winery, the grapes were hand-picked again and then destemmed. The grapes were crushed (passively) before being transported to the tank. They spent a day and a half pre-fermentative maceration and then fermented at a temperature of 25ºC. The malolactic transformation, which was the finishing step, was carried out in a cement tank.
  • Tasting Notes: It has a deep ruby ​​colour and the aroma presents ripe red fruit, forest and menthol notes and pleasant hints of leather. Well-integrated wood brings sweet spices, all set against a limestone background. In the mouth it is angular and elegant, with a captivating body and freshness, structured, with robust but delicate tannins. The finish is enveloping and long-lasting.
  • Maturation: It matured in used French (87%) and American (13%) oak casks from October 2017 to November 2018. It rested for a further 6 months in stainless steel containers until bottling in May 2019. To preserve its quality, it was bottled without treatment, which could have led to the formation of natural deposits.
  • Serve: Between 14ºC and 16ºC. Open 3 hours before serving.
  • Winemaker: Nuno Martins da Silva
  • Conservation: Although it can be consumed immediately, it has the potential to evolve for many years in the bottle, as long as it is stored properly.
  • Food Pairing: Grilled or stewed red meats, game with fur or feathers and cured cheeses.
  • Bottle Size: 75cl
  • Allergens: Contains sulfites
