Vinhas Velhas de Santa Maria
| Veen-Yas Vel-Ahs |
The Quinta de Foz de Arouce Vinhas Velhas de Santa Maria is crafted from a small vineyard plot of Baga
that was planted in 1940. This wine begins the fermentation process in stone troughs and stainless steel
tanks, followed by malolactic fermentation in 100 percent new French oak barrels, where it then ages for
twelve months. An incredibly age-worthy wine, it is deep red in color and has aromas of jam, prunes, and
cherries. Complex and full-bodied, it has subtle notes of chocolate with balanced acidity and persistent
finish, typical of this variety.
