Product details
Harvested by hand at their optimum point, the grapes are destemmed, crushed and vinified according to a process based on careful maceration with extraction of colour, tannins and aromas from the films, complemented by permanent reassembly during fermentation. This takes place in mills, at a controlled temperature between 28-30ºC, until reaching the desired Baume degree. In this phase, the wine brandy (benefit) is added, giving rise to a fortified wine. High quality wine, obtained by blending wines from harvests of several years, in order to acquire a complement of organoleptic characteristics typical of this old tawny style. Cálem 10 Anos Tawny is a wine that reflects the art of the blend, and results from the careful combination of wines aged in oak casks, with an average age of 10 years.
