Mirabilis White

Singular and born of a viticulture of resilience, Mirabilis White is crafted from rare raw material and embodies the ambition to go further - to produce a Douro wine for the world. Entering the world of Mirabilis is to transcend territorial boundaries - it is to create, with energy and conviction, an unrepeatable wine that endures over time.

Mirabilis White originates from very old and centenary vineyards, where native grape varieties such as Viosinho and Gouveio dominate, accompanied by other extremely rare varieties, some of which are nearly extinct in the region. Planted at altitudes above 500 metres in the municipalities of Murça, Alijó, and Sabrosa, these vineyards grow in granitic soils and schist-granite transition zones. The natural poverty of the soils and the advanced age of the vines limit production to under 2.300 kg per hectare, yielding small, concentrated berries of great purity.

At the origin of Mirabilis is a harvest conducted with almost surgical precision, preceded by meticulous ripeness monitoring of each parcel. Fermentation and ageing take place mainly in carefully selected French oak barrels, with a portion of the blend aged in small raw cement vats, where freshness and minerality are revealed with transparency and subtlety.

Mirabilis white displays an extraordinary combination of freshness, aromatic depth, silky texture, and vibrant structure. It is a wine of rare longevity, marked by tension and gravitas, with immense potential to evolve with distinction over the decades - a reflection of the Douro’s purest and most sophisticated expression.
