Oprindelsen af Quinta do Convento de São Pedro das Águias-klostret går tilbage til det 12. århundrede, hvor munke af cistercienserordenen slog sig ned i Távora-dalen og bidrog til introduktionen af vingårdskultur i regionen. Quinta do Convento White Reserve er lavet af Rabigato, Viosinho og Gouveio sorter, som gærer og lagres i 10 måneder på franske egetræsfade.
WINEMAKING Manual harvest into 18kg boxes. Fully destemmed and lightly
crushed, followed by pressing and cold stabilization. Alcoholic fermentation in
french oak barrels and stainless steel tanks with temperature control. After fermentation, it was kept for 9 months on lees with batonnage.
TASTING NOTES Clear and citrusy in color, it has fruit and white flowers aromas
and a light oak taste. It is a mineral, fresh and complex wine on the palate. With a
long mouth finish, this wine is the true expression of its terroir.
