Product details
The grapes, coming from a experimental plantings of Syrah established in 2004 in the property Quinta da Cabreira in the Douro Superior sub-region, were taken to the winery in plastic boxes and rigorously inspected on a sorting table on arrival. The grapes were then completely destemmed and slightly crushed. After this, the juice was transferred to temperature-controlled stainless steel vats where it underwent a cold maceration for 5 days. The alcoholic fermentation took place for 7 days, and was followed by a gentle pressing, and malolactic fermentation in French oak barrels for 16 months.
