Description
Xisto Indie Tinto Douro is a clear expression of terroir and place. It is made from sustainably farmed vines and vinified using only indigenous yeasts. In this way, Luis eliminates all potential variability, except for soil type, as an expression of terroir. In terms of grape varieties, the wine is composed of 30% Tinta Roriz, 30% Touriga Franca, 10% Tinta Amarela, 5% Tinta Barroca, 5% Rufete, 5% Touriga Brasileira, 5% Donzelinho Tinto, 5% Malvasia Preta and 5% Touriga Femea. All of them are a blend of indigenous varieties made from vines planted in the 1950s, grown at high altitude and cared for by Luis and his team on blue schist soils at 510 m altitude in a unique vineyard in the Alijó area of the Douro.
Winemaking
After the harvest, the grapes are trodden by foot in traditional stone vats where they ferment spontaneously with indigenous yeasts. It is then racked into stainless steel tanks to decant the coarse particles. The Indie matures for 22 months in used 500-litre French oak barrels.
