Winemaking
After 2 years of a dry period, the 2013winter brought abundant rainfall refill- ing water reserves in the soil in almost whole Region. Spring started cold which have delayed the vegetative cycle and summer was exceptionally dry. None the- less the vines were green and the occasional rain brought the ideal maturation stage to the grapes follow on a fine quality harvest. WINEMAKER: Maria Serpa Pimentel
Story
Pacheca Porto LBV results from old vines grapes that were transported in chests of 25 kg, subject to a strict sorting at the entrance of the winery. After destem- ming and crushing they are taken to a traditional stone tank where they weretrodden by men for 3 hours on the firstday. During the fermentation, smooth reassembles are done for blanket leach- ing and extraction of phenolic and aro- matic compounds. Then, brandy is added to stop the fermentation. It aged in 600 liters casks where it remained for about4 years. It was bottled without filtrationbeing subject, during its aging, to create a slight deposit.
About manufacturer
Quinta da Pacheca, one of the best known estates in the Douro region, was also one of the first properties to bottle wine under its own label. It is first mentioned in a document dated April 1738, where is it referred as “Pacheca’s”, because it was property of D. Mariana Pacheco Pereira. But it was only in 1903, when Dom José Freire de Serpa Pimentel decided to develop his interest in oenology, that he bought the estate and began to seriously dedicate himself to the risky business of winemaking. Today, a century and many successes later, a brand-new generation of the Serpa Pimentel family is at the head of Quinta da Pacheca: Maria, Catarina and José are the young new faces of this family old company.
