The colour is bright straw with a slightly greenish tinge. Not having been subjected to contact with wood, it does not suffer the aromatic influence of the barrels. The aroma reveals the exuberance of the Encruzado caste, showing a more varietal nose.

The colour is bright straw with a slightly greenish tinge. Not having been subjected to contact with wood, it does not suffer the aromatic influence of the barrels. The aroma reveals the exuberance of the Encruzado caste, showing a more varietal nose. More floral at the beginning, it reveals fresh fruit aromas, namely apple and citrus with some tropical notes and wild herbs.
In the mouth, its exuberance is remarkable and progressive. The exceptional balance between acidity and alcohol gives it great elegance. One can feel the discreet presence of citrus fruits, green apple and nuts. Contact with the skins gives it structure, providing a long finish in which the aromatic complexity and intensity of flavour are harmoniously revealed.

Quinta do Coladinho is a small wine farm in Santa Comba Dão. Integrated in the Dão Wine Region, it presents some specific characteristics of the area, namely a higher concentration of relative humidity throughout the year. Due to the proximity to the Aguieira Dam, the spring and summer mists are very evident, requiring a greater phytosanitary care.
