Vinification Method

Classic fermentation method with destemming and pre fermentative skin contact followed of the application of dry yeasts. Fermentation up to 30º C in the first 2/3, and lowering down to 20º C during the last 1/3. During the whole fermentative process, pumping over 2 times per day, using each time half of the volume contained in the vat. After the alcoholic fermentation, the cap is plunged for 30 days, and during that period, extraction of the gentle tannins is conducted, along with the malolactic fermentation and the natural stabilization of the wine.

Ageing

Wine is aged in American, French of Allier and Portuguese oak barrels of 225 Lt for 5 months. Ageing in bottle a minimum 5 months after bottling.

Tasting Notes

With a rich colour and complex bouquet this is a full bodied wine of excellent concentration. Although full bodied and complex, the palate is smooth and ripe. Delicious plym and cassis fruit is seasoned with notes of chocolate and subtle oak spice. The finish is dry and extremely persistent.

How to Serve
