Granito Cru

Bodega: Luis Seabra
Año: 2022
País y Región: Portugal, Minho (Vinho Verde)

Este vino procede de viñedos ubicados en Melgaço, una subregión más fresca del Duero dentro de la Denominación de Origen Protegida Vinho Verde. Las cepas están plantadas a una altitud entre 50 y 150 metros sobre el nivel del mar, en suelos de pizarra. Se elabora con uvas Albariño seleccionadas y prensadas manualmente. El mosto fermenta espontáneamente con levaduras autóctonas en fudres grandes (de 1000 a 2000 litros), manteniendo contacto con las lías durante todo el proceso sin añadir sulfuro.

Perfil del Vino:
El Granito Cru es un vino fresco y elegante, con notas de fruta blanca madura como la pera y manzana verde. Se perciben también toques minerales debido a los suelos de pizarra donde crecen las cepas. Su estructura es equilibrada, con una acidez vibrante que refleja el clima fresco del lugar.

Puntuaciones y Comentarios:

Learn more about Luis Seabra

Luis Seabra does not come from a wine family: he was born into a coffee-farming family in Angola and returned to Portugal in the 1970s, though his father's family came from the Douro. He studied viticulture at the university of Vila Real, in the heart of the Alto Douro, and made his name as Niepoort's winemaker before leaving in 2013 to set up on his own.

His stated aim on going independent was blunt: to make the wines he wanted to make, without thinking about what the market wants. In practice that means native-yeast fermentations, one hundred per cent whole bunches for the reds and macerations of up to thirty days with gentle extraction.

The names of his ranges are a map of soils, and they play on two meanings: in Portuguese cru means raw, and in wine vocabulary it means the site. Granito Cru works through the granite areas variety by variety; Xisto Ilimitado is his village wine, a survey of schist soils across several subzones; and Xisto Cru are single-soil field blends from the best parcels.

He works in three regions at once —Douro, Vinho Verde and Dão— which lets him apply the same thinking across different geological materials.
