Product details
Hand-picked at their optimum point, the grapes are destemmed, crushed and vinified according to a process based on careful maceration with extraction of color, tannins and aromas from the skins, complemented by permanent pumping over during fermentation. This takes place in mills, at a controlled temperature between 28-30ºC, until the desired Baumé degree is reached. At this stage, wine spirit (benefit) is added, creating a fortified wine.
Grape Varieties:
Touriga Nacional,Tinta Roriz,Touriga Franca,Tinta Barroca
Tasting Notes:
Intense in tone, with a brownish tawny core and some brick-colored tones. On the nose it presents notes of fruit jelly, combined with notes of plum and raisin and light touches of spice, such as nutmeg. Full-bodied and intense in the mouth, it shows flavors of very ripe fruits, combined with a still young tannin and some hints of dried fruits. Intense and long aftertaste.
