Nicolau de Almeida is een echt familiebedrijf in de noord Portugese streek Douro. Aan het hoofd van het domein en de familie staat João Rosas Nicolau de Almeida. João is een begenadigd wijnmaker die alle geheimen van de Douro wel kent. Samen met zijn zonen Mateus en João, beide gediplomeerde oenologen, produceert hij elk jaar weer prachtige authentieke Douro wijnen die een toonbeeld zijn van het lokale terroir.

De Douro is verdeeld in drie subregio's: Baixo Corgo, Cima Corgo en Douro Superior. De eerste heeft een mediterraan/Atlantisch microklimaat, de tweede mediterraan en de derde mediterraan/continentaal. Quinta do Monte Xisto ligt in de Douro Superior, in Vila Nova de Foz Côa, op de linkeroever van de rivier de Douro. Dit is de subregio met de laagste neerslagniveaus, met een jaarlijks gemiddelde van 400 mm.

In de regel loopt de rivier de Douro van oost naar west, waarbij het land aan de zuid- of noordzijde ligt. In het gebied van Vila Nova de Foz Côa heeft een tektonische breuk – de Vilariça-breuk – gezorgd voor een unieke reeks bochten in de rivier die voor verschillende zonexposities zorgen. Hier loopt de rivier van zuid naar noord, waardoor alle exposities op dezelfde plek kunnen plaatsvinden. In het noorden hebben we druiven die de wijn meer zuurgraad, meer frisheid geven, in het zuiden meer rijping, structuur. Zoals João zegt: “de pianotoetsen zijn er allemaal, we hebben alle noten om te componeren!

Kenmerkend voor de Douro en zeker voor Nicolau de Almeida is de ondergrond van Schist of leisteen. Zoals Joao zegt: "We werken in rotsen van meer dan 500 miljoen jaar oud die winterwater opslaan dat in de zomer door wijnstokken wordt geconsumeerd." De oude lagen Schist in de ondergrond geven de wijnen van Nicolau de Almeida hun kenmerkende diepgang en minerale ondertoon.

Quinta do Monte Xisto is gemaakt met druiven van onze beste percelen, sommige blootgesteld aan het noorden en andere aan het zuiden, waarbij wordt gezocht naar de balans tussen structuur/body en elegantie/zuurgraad. De blend bestaat uit Touriga Nacional, Touriga Francesa en Sousão.

De druiven werden handmatig geoogst en in dozen van 20 kg naar de wijnmakerij (gelegen in Vila Nova de Foz Côa, Douro) vervoerd. Ze werden gevinifieerd in persen met voettreden. De gisting vond plaats gedurende 6 dagen in de lagar met behulp van inheemse gisten. Dit werd gevolgd door een periode van 18 maanden in vaten van 600 liter en vaten van 2.000 liter in het depot in Vila Nova de Gaia, dicht bij de zee, met uitstekende temperatuur- en vochtigheidsomstandigheden.

Very strong and cute tumbler
Size: 40 Ounces, Color: Rose Quartz 2.0, Size: 40 Ounces, Color: Rose Quartz 2.0
Great quencher to get. I got this for my self and I love it so much. It's super cute and the color I got is a light soft pink. The size is big which is great since I like having enough coffee to last me all day. It keeps my drinks cold and warm or what ever temperature it is for a good amount of time which is great for anyone who is out for long periods of time. The quality overall is very good. The handle is big, comfortable and easy to grip and the quencher fits perfectly on my gym bag. Only downside is that it did get a smudge on it after I removed the paper that it had on the bottom. I tried removing the smudge it feels sticky like glue but it didnt get removed so I had to put a sticker over it to cover it up.

Smells amazingly like cherry, but expect a mess under the feeder.
Style: Wild Bird Food, Style: Wild Bird Food
This is a fantastic budget seed blend to keep your backyard feeders full during the busy seasons. I put a banana in the picture next to this massive 10-pound bag for scale, though I wouldn't recommend leaving the fruit out there unless you want to feed the local raccoons instead. The most surprising part of this bag is the smell—it has a very strong, sweet cherry scent right out of the bag that genuinely seems to bring in the local cardinals and blue jays faster than plain seed. THE GOOD: • The cherry flavoring actually works as an attractant, and the sheer volume of seed you get for the price makes this an excellent value for high-traffic yards. • It brings in a huge variety of ground-feeding birds, especially mourning doves and juncos. THE TRADE-OFF: • This is a "value" mix, which means it contains a very high percentage of filler seeds like milo and cracked corn. Finicky songbirds will actively kick the milo out of the hanging feeder to get to the black oil sunflower seeds, creating a massive pile of rejected seed on the ground. THE BOTTOM LINE: A great-smelling, budget-friendly birdseed that attracts a ton of wildlife, provided you don't mind the ground-feeders cleaning up the mess underneath.

Has attracted a mix of birds.
Style: Wild Bird Food
Great value for the price. Since putting this out, we’ve had so many different kinds of birds visiting our yard. The birds seem to love the mix, and it has definitely brought more activity to our feeders. I also compared prices before purchasing, and this was very comparable to similar products and bag sizes. Overall, it’s a quality bird seed at a fair price, and I would absolutely buy it again

Great for local birds
Style: Wild Bird Food
This bird seed has been a great find for attracting birds here in North Texas! Within just a couple of days of putting it out, we started seeing a noticeable increase in activity. It brings in a nice variety too—cardinals, finches, doves, and even the occasional blue jay. The mix seems fresh and well-balanced, with very little waste. I also appreciate that it doesn’t have a ton of filler seeds that birds usually ignore. Everything in the blend actually gets eaten, which makes it feel like a better value. It holds up well in our unpredictable Texas weather, and I haven’t had issues with mold or clumping. Overall, if you’re looking to attract a wide range of local birds and keep your feeder busy, this is definitely worth trying!

Great Bird Attraction & Solid Value for the Price
Style: Wild Bird Food
This bird seed has been a great addition to our yard. It attracts a wide variety of birds + they seem to really enjoy the cherry flavor.. it doesn’t sit untouched like some other mixes I’ve tried. The quality is solid, with a good mix that looks fresh and not overly dusty. It also seems easy for the birds to digest, as they keep coming back + there’s minimal waste left behind. I mean.. enjoying the bird without the poop - WIN! The 10-pound bag is a great size.. enough to last a while without constantly needing to restock. For the quantity you get, it’s definitely good value for the money. Overall, a reliable choice if you’re looking to attract more birds without overspending. If your debating.. BUY NOW
