Winery - Lavradores de Feitoria
* Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
This grouping of top growers makes some of the best value wines from the Douro. Tres Bagos is their introductory bottling, a ripe, tarry firmly structured wine that is ready to drink, the juicy, black currant fruit delicious now.

Fresh, stalky wine with bright acidity. It has black currant and berry fruits, dry tannins. A good, everyday wine, well priced.

Smooth, soft wine with attractive acidity, black plum and berry juice flavor. There is a deal of acidity, tangy and juicy, the edge rather rustic.

Wood-aged wine, the fruit spiced up with some firm tannins and chunky fruits. The acidity gives the wine a delicious black plum richness, emphasized by the ripe, dense structure.

With some barrel fermentation, this has richness as well as crisp acidity. The toasty layer sits well with the creamy pear and green plum fruit flavors.

From Sauvignon Blanc grown in the vineyards of the Mateus palace, this is a classic, herbaceous wine with attractive fresh and grassy acidity. The high altitude fruit is bright and crisp.

A deliciously rich and spicy wine, very much in the style of the new Douro wines, softly perfumed, with black plums, sweet and dusty tannins, only a hint of dryness. The wine is balanced, with great fruit and acidity to go with the structure.

Lavradores is an innovative project that brings together 15 growers (lavradores) and estate owners in the Douro to make and market their own wine. This first vintage, an amazing bargain at the price, justifies the innovation. It has a fine, earthy character, with rich, dark tannic fruit and big blackberry fruit flavors. A powerful and impressive wine which talks of schist rocks and mountain vineyards.
