Casa Ferreirinha's Callabriga is a celebrated red blend from Portugal's renowned Douro region. This wine is praised for its deep ruby hue and complex bouquet, featuring ripe red fruits like blackcurrant and strawberry, along with black fruits such as plum.
Floral notes of rock rose and spicy aromas of pepper and curry from oak maturation add to its complexity. The palate is noted for its fine body, well-integrated acidity, and quality tannins, leading to a long and intricate finish.
The Callabriga is made using traditional vinification techniques from grapes grown in the Douro Superior. The blend primarily consists of Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca, and Tinta Roriz. The wine undergoes 12-18 months of aging in oak barrels, which contributes to its rich, spicy character and well-rounded structure.
Casa Ferreirinha, part of the Sogrape Vinhos family, has a storied history dating back to 1952 with the production of the first vintage of Barca-Velha. The estate is dedicated to producing high-quality still wines rather than the region's traditional Port.
This versatile wine pairs wonderfully with a variety of robust dishes. It complements red meats, big game, and intense cheeses particularly well.
