Located in the heart of the Douro Valley, on a 36-hectare estate filled with vineyards stretching to the river, Pacheca The Wine House Hotel is an intense and soulful hotel that surprises with its history combined with its innovative and sophisticated style. The main building is a typical 18th-century house that has been restored respecting its traditional architecture and original values. The common areas and rooms now benefit from a modern and avant-garde image. It has a restaurant where you can appreciate the Douro landscape and the cuisine based on local produce, selected and prepared with the creative and gourmet touch of Chef Sara Oliveira. This is a boutique hotel dedicated to gastronomic and wine tourism, where well-being is constant and wine takes center stage.

The grapes were harvested into 25 kg boxes, after careful selection for their best state of health, and sent to the winemaking center where they were pressed in a pneumatic press. The must resulting from the pressing fermented at a controlled temperature of 14-16°C. After alcoholic fermentation, it aged on the fine lees of fermentation in tanks.
Made of stainless steel lined with French oak staves, with weekly bâtonnage for 9 months.

Pacheca Superior Branco is a wine with a delicate aroma, with notes of pineapple and lychee, and well-integrated toasty oak notes. On the palate, it is very balanced with a well-present acidity that gives it minerality, medium body, and a long, persistent finish.
