The apricot, considered a close cousin of the plum, originally comes from China where it has been cultivated for more than 2000 years. In France, it is thanks in particular to Louis XIV, the “Sun King”, that the apricot takes off. Giffard has selected apricots from Roussillon for their firm, sweet and very fragrant flesh.

Golden yellow liqueur with orange hues.

Sweetness of apricot, slight vegetal hint, sweet spices (vanilla) and caramel on the finish.

The taste is very round and smooth, reminiscent of caramelized apricot compote.

NOTES OF

SCENT & FLAVOR

COLOR

Deep colour, almost opaque.

NOSE

Aroma of excellent complexity, with wild bush and spicy notes like curry, pepper and ginger, red berries and black fruits mixed with a light cacao touch, the result of a good maturation, along with a slightly stony finish.

PALATE

On the palate it has a powerful attack, with a lively acidity, firm and well present tannins, wild bush and red berry notes, with an extremely long finish and great concentration.

“Thanks to the characteristics and potential of the vineyards at Quinta do Seixo, it was possible to cut through the strong maturations of this year's harvest. As a result, we produced very balanced and robust wines, with aromatic notes typical of more mature years.” - Luís Sottomayor, head of Sogrape's winemaking

ORIGINS

Quinta do Seixo Vintage is a unique expression of this renowned estate, where a combination of soil, slope inclination, sun exposure and reduced amount of available water contribute to the production of intense and complex wines.The 100-year-old vines producing Port create wines full of intensity, character and freshness.
