Bafarela 17 wines have positioned Casa Brites Aguiar as one of the most talked-about producers in the country. Bafarela 17 wines express the terroir. High in alcohol, but surprisingly fresh. Baron Forrester advocated wines like this…\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e Bafarela 17 wines are wines of passion. They are, in themselves, audacious. These wines have an alcohol content of 17% and are only made when the grapes are ripe enough. Above all, they are a telluric interpretation of their place of origin, a part of the Douro where, during grape ripening, the heat is stifling and water scarcity is a constant.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cb\u003eGrape varieties:\u003c\/b\u003e Touriga Franca, Tinta Roriz and Tinta Barroca.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cb\u003eWinemaker:\u003c\/b\u003e 2PR\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cb\u003eExam Notes\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cb\u003eColor:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eRich and loaded\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAroma:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eIntense ripe fruit notes with hints of chocolate and cocoa, as well as aromas of wild berries and flowers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cb\u003eTaste:\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003eFull-bodied, it has firm tannins, but softened by the acidity, resulting in a fresh, balanced wine with a very long finish.

With careful selection in the vineyard, the grapes were fully destemmed and crushed. After pre-fermentation cold skin contact for 48 hours, fermentation took place in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks with a total maceration of over 40 days, but without excessive extraction. The wine was then transferred to stainless steel tanks, where malolactic fermentation occurred, and then aged for 12 months in new French oak barrels (500 liters).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAwards and Reviews:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cb\u003eAlcohol content:\u003c\/b\u003e 17% vol.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cb\u003eCapacity:\u003c\/b\u003e 75cl\u003cb\u003e \u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eQuantity per box:\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e3\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cb\u003eBox Type:\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003eCard\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cb\u003eAllergens:\u003c\/b\u003e Contains sulfites.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"GARRAFEIRA PORTELA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49358203519321,"sku":null,"price":37.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0872\/9765\/5129\/files\/Designsemnome-2024-09-23T175444.988.png?v=1727110530","url":"https:\/\/www.garrafeiraportela.pt\/en\/products\/bafarela-17-brites-de-aguiar-2020-0-75","provider":"GARRAFEIRA PORTELA","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
