Product details
This Port was produced using the traditional method. After being hand-harvested, the grapes are partially destemmed and crushed in the press, where they undergo a light maceration before alcoholic fermentation (AF). Fermentation is interrupted with the addition of grape brandy at the ideal time determined by the winemaker. This results in a fortified wine that is aged in oak barrels in the Douro. During aging, the lees are removed and several adjustments are made. This Colheita is filtered before being bottled in Gaia.
