Aroma: This wine’s nose is very fresh and intense, with notes of wild black fruits and black cherries balanced with seductive hints of licorice. The aromas are made more complex due to subtle notes of vanilla from the wood.
Taste: In the mouth, the wine is fabulously concentrated and has firm tannins and a smooth texture. The very persistent finish strongly displays the intensity of the wines of the Douro Superior.
Ideal with: meats, cheeses and Mediterranean cuisine.
Winemaking: After grapes arrive at the winery, we eliminate clusters which are not in perfect condition. The grapes are then vinified with total destemming, soft crushing and thermal shock followed by a period of cold pre-fermentative maceration in the wine press for about 12 to 24 hours. The must is transferred to broad and low fermentation tanks, where the wines ferment for about 10 days at temperatures between 24 and 26º C. Malolactic fermentation occurred naturally and is finished in late December. Part of the fermentation process was made in oak barrels.
