Herdade do Mouchao Colheitas Antigas MAGNUM 2003 x2 - 1.5L bottle(s)
In a country steeped in winemaking history, the name Mouchão is synonymous with wines of distinction. The family owned estate has been producing wine for over a hundred years and maintains the traditions established in 1901 when the winery was built. The distinctive character of Mouchão wines derives from three principal characteristics: the Alicante Bouschet grape, the specific terroir and adherence to traditional winemaking methods. At Mouchão grapes are hand-picked, foot trodden in marble cement lining lagares and the wine aged in five thousand liters vats. Mouchão wines are renowned for their longevity, maturing subtly as they age.
Mouchão Colheitas Antigas 2003 is a unique and exclusive wine, with a very limited edition. The Colheitas Antigas project, pioneered by Herdade do Mouchão in Portugal, is characterized by its longevity and enormous potential for aging in the bottle. From each harvest of Mouchão wine, a small batch of bottles is reserved, preserved in an air-conditioned environment, to be launched on the market ten years after the harvest year. These wines return to the market more mature and complex, always with original flavors of the grape variety from which they were made, Alicante Bouschet. Only 3,000 bottles were produced.
