+19 traditional white grape varieties from the Douro
Os Canivéis is a set of parcels in Carlão, Cima Corgo, where the soil is transitioning from schist to granite. These old vineyards have a field blend of +19 grape varieties. The outcome is a unique wine that excites for what is yet to be explored in the Douro region and for the conservation and durability of this Douro that, despite being undervalued, for us, has just as much or even more value!
Carlão, 520m altitude, vineyards aged between 80 and 92 years, Cima Corgo.
Horse plowing. Manual harvest for 18kg boxes. Direct press of whole bunch, cold decanting, 25% barrel fermentation and 75% horizontal inox vats. Ageing for 12 months.
Citrus yellow color, delicate citrus aroma. On the palate, the attack is dense, with balanced acidity. Rich mid-palate. Finishes with great freshness and persistence.

Pairs well with fish or meat dishes, and due to its acidity, matches perfectly with simpler fish and seafood.
