Product details
The grapes come from old vineyards. The harvest date is determined according to the ideal state of ripeness. The grapes harvested for small boxes are carefully selected by hand, then destemmed and crushed and sent directly into new 300-litre barrels from which the top is removed. They ferment there at a controlled temperature and are manually pumped over. The maceration is very careful to highlight only the fruit and the grape variety and takes around eight days. Once fermentation is complete, only the wine is separated and aged in the same barrels for 24 months.
Grape Varieties:
Touriga Nacional
Tasting Notes:
Deep ruby colour. Intense aroma with notes of ripe fruit and floral notes. With a present but well-integrated and discreet wood, resulting in a very complex combination with sweet notes, some spices, keeping the floral notes of the variety alive. Good notes of vegetal character reminiscent of the vineyard and its soil. In the mouth it has good volume, round and young tannins. Finishes fresh, with the presence of young tannins.
