Silgueiros is located in the municipality of Viseu, in the heart of the Dão demarcated region, between the Serra da Estrela and Caramulo mountains. Ancient vineyards planted on granite soils benefit from a temperate mountain climate — cold, wet winters and warm, sunny summers — that preserves natural freshness while building concentration and structure in the grapes.About This WineThe Reserva is a step up in intensity and complexity from the Colheita — a vigorous, structured red from the same estate, spending four months in French oak barrels. The granite soils lend great minerality and help mature the tannins, while the oak adds depth and aromatic complexity without overwhelming the fruit. An elegant, classic expression of the Dão at its most serious.Tasting NotesColour: Deep ruby with garnet highlightsNose: Intense red forest fruits, oak spice, and balsamic notes with a mineral undercurrentPalate: Full and structured with firm, imposing tannins, great acidity, and concentrated dark fruitFinish: Long and persistent with lingering oak, spice, and earthy mineralityFood PairingA natural partner for grilled meats, BBQ, slow-roasted lamb, game, and hard aged cheeses.
