The Story
Wine Information
GRAPE VARIETIES
Residual Sugar: 1.6 gr/L Tinta Roriz, Touriga Franca, Touriga Nacional and Tinta Barroca.
VINIFICATION
The grapes, chosen from selected plots, were taken to the winery in 22 kg plastic boxes. On arrival in the winery they were rigorously inspected on a sorting table. The grapes were then destemmed and crushed and transferred into stainless steel tanks where they fermented. The alcoholic fermentation took place in temperature-controlled stainless steel vats for 5 to 7 days.
AGEING
95% in stainless steel vats. 5% in oak barrels.
TASTING
Colour: Deep purple.
Nose: Great intensity on the nose, with fresh berry fruit aromas and elegant floral notes.
Palate: Elegant start that leads to a voluminous wine, with elegant tannins and a fine texture. Fresh berry fruit notes complete the palate. This is a harmonious, balanced wine, with good persistence.
WINEMAKERS
