Outrora Baga Bairrada

50.00

This Bairrada Classic wine is a tribute to the centenary vineyards, matriarchs of the region and witnesses of past times. The grapes are selected from 80 to 120 year old vines from our vineyard in the Cadoiços Valley. Winemaking in “lagar” with foot treading, besides being an old technique, we believe it remains the best way to obtain great wines of this variety. The two-year oak stage and subsequent bottle rest give the elegance and balance needed for a wine to be tasted for many years. An Impressive Bairrada!An Impressive Wine!

Goes well with buttered Goat and Sheep Cheeses, traditional sausages (raw, boiled, or roasted), red meats
