Bastardinho 40 Anos

After many years of aging of Bastardinhode Azeitão (Trousseau grape variety), we have come to the end of this extraordinary

nectar of the Setúbal Peninsula. For a long time we did the 25 years, later the 20 years and then due to the aging of the bases we

passed the 30 years. This year, not being able to maintain the profile of the same, we had to advance to the 40 years. Here the youngest harvest is 40 years and the oldest is about 80 years.

This wine should be appreciated with great rigor and solemnity, as they are the last 2300 liters.

Note of interest: These vineyards existed between the Costa da Caparica and Lavradio having been uprooted due to urban growth. In 1983 we were given the last ton of grapes coming from a vineyard about 90 years old, whose grapes had a probable alcohol potential of 18 °. In order to prevent its extinction, in 2005 we planted half a hectare on one of our properties.
