Maçanita É Sousão ou É Vinhão

Joana and António Maçanita had long had a dream. To create a wine with its own character and personality, in the style of the two siblings and winemakers. The opportunity arose in the lands of the Douro, where Joana carries out part of her professional activity. Among the high levels and vineyards, she came across a very special raw material that was impossible to ignore, so she called António and challenged him. In 2011, the roots were laid for the Maçanita brothers' project in the Douro. The vineyards are located in the Douro, in the Cima Corgo sub-region, near Pinhão. They were carefully chosen to fit the right profile, grapes with a lot of concentration, richness and freshness. The two brothers work together in the vineyards on the operations that determine the quality and health of the grapes. With a less intreventive oenology, in which the extraction of the wine's color and structure is done gently and slowly, Maçanita wines are the pure expression of “Maçanita style” oenology, fruit above all else.
