Wine Concept

Fresh and fruity wine profile, obtained from blending a wide range of wines to guarantee a consistent quality.

Agriculture

A dry winter followed by above average temperatures in spring and summer, gave rise to an early start to the harvest. Although temperatures continued to be high, there was no extreme heat during the vintage, and the dry conditions were excellent for fruit quality, produciong wines with intense, persistent, aromatic fruit.

SOIL TYPE
Granite/schist rock with clay/loam soil.

Grape Varieties

Touriga Nacional, Aragonez, Syrah

Vinification / Maturation

Destemming, must chilling, pneumatic pressing, cold settling, fermentation temperature control with selected yeast inoculation in stainless steel tanks, centrifuging, fining, cold stabilization and filtration.
