At the head of a group that became, after 50 years, the leader in children's fashion, Roger Zannier is now also present in several wine-growing regions of the world, such as the Douro region (Portugal) and Provence (France).
On his frequent visits to Portugal as part of his textile activities, Roger Zannier discovers Quinta do Pessegueiro, being literally seduced by the property and the Douro region. In 1991, he acquired the land and immediately began planting vineyards. Thus was born his first and one of his most important investments in the wine sector. As this region is one of the most unlikely in which man has ever attempted to plant vineyards, it took the foresight and modesty of a captain respectful of the land, such as João Nicolau de Almeida, to associate ancestral techniques with the most modern methods of oenology and viticulture.
Extraordinary bases, associated with passion and an unwavering commitment to authenticity, favor the creation of exceptional wines.
This Quinta do Pessegueiro reserve ferments in wooden vats. Malolactic fermentation occurred naturally in a stainless steel tank and then the wine was transferred to 225L barrels, where it aged for 12 months.
Bright ruby color with aromas of cocoa, menthol and black plum. Very fresh in the mouth, fine tannins, well-placed acidity.
