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. Vintage Port is a high quality wine, with a unique style and character, from a single year considered exceptional, bottled between the second and third year after harvest. It is a wine originally red, complex, full-bodied, with remarkable aging potential.
