Castello D'Alba Superior Red 2021 - Douro
Since the 19th century, the Rui Madeira family has been deeply connected to farming and viticulture in the border area between Upper Douro and Beira Alta, one of the most remote regions of the Iberian Peninsula. It was within this family that a passion for the aromas and scents of the land was nurtured, shaping their character and values. This legacy has instilled in them a profound respect for the region's traditional fauna, flora, environment, and its people.
Castello D'Alba Superior is a very elegant and refined wine, a modern style that fully preserves the soul of the Douro’s native grape varieties. Aroma that harmoniously blends the great concentration of Douro Superior reds in all their complexity.
