Product details
Vinification took place by the traditional method of treading the grapes underfoot in wine presses, as well as in stainless steel vats with automatic pumping over and temperature control. After gentle crushing and complete de-stemming, fermentation took place with light homogenization and prolonged maceration, resulting in the desired levels of aromas and phenols. The blend was aged in both old and new French oak barrels in order to preserve the fruited character that is typical of wines from the Douro. The wine was clarified and filtered before bottling.

Touriga Nacional,Tinta Roriz
Tasting Notes:
Presents a vivid red colour, which is both intense and deep. The aroma is intense, exuberant and very floral, reminiscent of the scented Rockrose surrounded by fruits of the forest such as cassis; mint and some refined, elegant, well-integrated woody notes. Fresh on the palate, with a hint of cherry. Soft and velvety, presents smooth tannins, and is very well balanced against acidity, giving the wine complexity and longevity. The after-taste is long and well-flavoured.
