COZs is a partnership between two grape growers who have been leaders of the vanguard of new-wave Portuguese wines, Tiago Teles and Antonio de Marques da Cruz of Quinta da Serradinha.
100% Castelão from the Vinha de Murta vineyard, planted in 2006.
Hand harvested and heavily sorted as the harvest was extremely wet. The fruit that remained was great quality and provided awesome freshness with intensity.
Three-day partial whole bunch maceration before finishing ferment in 1000L dornas. Spent 11 months on its lees in old burgundy barrels.
Lighter and fresher than most wines made of this grape, however, it still shows the uniqueness of Portuguese wines with its Atlantic character.
