Forgotten Field Lisboa Companhia das Quintas 2011
The 2011 Forgotten Field is a red wine produced by Companhia das Quintas. It originates from the Lisboa region in Portugal, where it holds the classification of Vinho Regional.
The wine is crafted from a blend of Castelão, Cabernet Sauvignon, Aragonez, and Touriga Nacional. Cabernet Sauvignon is one of the world's most famous dark grapes utilized for structured red wines, frequently cultivated in renowned areas such as Bordeaux, California, Washington, and Tuscany. The blend is further defined by Touriga Nacional, a premier Portuguese grape recognized for its great depth, which is typically grown in the Douro and Dão regions.
Bottled with an alcohol content of 13.5%, this vintage reflects the viticultural practices of Companhia das Quintas within the Portuguese wine landscape.
The history of the wine
Below, you can delve into the history of this wine — its producer, grape, area, and region.
Lisboa
Lisboa is a Portuguese wine region that stretches along the Atlantic coast north and west of the country's capital, Lissabon. The region, which until 2008 was known under the name Estremadura, is strongly influenced by its maritime climate. The proximity to the Atlantic Ocean and the cool sea breezes play a crucial role in viticulture, as they moderate the temperatures in the vineyards and protect the vines against extreme heat. The landscape is hilly and known for its many historic windmills, which testify to the constant wind from the sea.
The wine tradition in Lisboa is broad, and the region is one of Portugal's largest measured by production volume. Historically, the area has been dominated by large cooperatives that produced wine in large quantities, but in recent times there has been an increased focus on site-specific wines from independent wineries. The region contains nine specific DOC appellations, including historic areas such as Colares, Carcavelos and Bucelas. In addition, a large amount of wine is produced under the classification Vinho Regional Lisboa, which gives the winemakers flexibility to work with many different grape varieties.
In Lisboa, a wide range of both local and international grapes are grown. Among the most widespread white varieties are Arinto and Fernão Pires, while the red varieties often include Castelão, Touriga Nacional and Aragonez as well as international variants such as Cabernet Sauvignon. The great geographical variation from the coast and into the hinterland creates a number of different microclimates, which makes Lisboa a versatile region with the production of both red, white and fortified wines.
When this wine was made, the world looked very different. Here are some of the stories that unfolded while this bottle quietly aged in its cellar.
