Quinta de Macedos Lagar de Macedos 2002, Douro (6)
In 1998, "Quinta de Macedos" was bought by Paul & Philippa Reynolds. It has 7 ha of old vines planted on ancient walled terraces. These vines are rooted deep in the schistous slopes, which fall away sharply to the River Torto ("Crooked River") in the valley below.
Unlike many other vineyards, Macedos escaped the mania of wholesale replanting in the 1980's and 90's and the vineyard. For this and the respectful way they handle the grapes their vineyard stands as a legacy of former times and practices. It is rare and worth preserving.
Single Bottle: £18.99
In a case of 12: £18.04
