A varietal Castelão, a grape that is not very common in Douro, the 2022 Mono C is floral and elegant with an earthy twist of rusticity, making it characterful, different and attractive.
Opvallend fris, met sappig fruit, mineraliteit en subtiel eiken

It's serious, harmonious, a little backward and shy and has a deep color and a deep nose that is nuanced and insinuating and takes time to open up in the glass. Exceptional acidity and freshness.

Balsamic and earthy with hints of blackberries and violets. The palate is medium- to full-bodied, with amazing concentration and dark fruit flavors, balancing freshness and a long and lovely finish.
