Produced exclusively from the Syrah variety, it reveals the enormous potential of this variety in a special and challenging climate that only Serpa provides.
This was the latest Series project, and the first ever approach to this unknown white grape variety. Our viticulture team led a profound study of this grape to discover its origins and character, and we found its constant presence within Douro’s Oldest Vines, which traditionally are composed of a Field Blend. Amongst many other varieties, we have selected Samarrinho for experimentation for its attractive bundle, which revealed nobility and enologic potential. Once vinified, it resulted in a strong-charactered wine, intense and fruity. Its structure is medium, with a smooth finish, unveiling a difference in style and very peculiar characteristics.

Sauternes is obtained thanks to the action of a microscopic fungus (Botrytis cinerea) that appears on the vines around September as a result of the microclimate of the Sauternes region (located about 40 km from Bordeaux).
