Description
Pera-Manca is the label that Cartuxa reserves for its most exceptional wines.
Pera-Manca is a full-bodied, complex and elegant, with an aroma of raisin and notes of oak. Given the great quality of tannins and the oak used for aging, the wine have great longevity, needing time to achieve it's full potential.
Pera-Manca is produced from the Aragonez and Tricandeira varieties with each parcel being carefully separated and selected at the harvest. The vineyards are over 30 years old and selection depends on the grapes developing slowly without excess stress, drawing out the best characteristics of the varieties. In the best years that this happens the grapes are harvested, de-stalked, lighty crushed and fermented in 12000L oak vats. Then follows a long period of maceration before the wine is matured in 3000L oak vats for 18 months. The wine is aged in bottle for a further 24 months in the Cartuxa Monastery cellars prior to release.
Grape Varieties:
Aragonez, Trincadeira
Food Pairing:
This wine finely accompanies red meats, roast beef and grilled meats.
