It was carefully vinified at a controlled fermentation temperature not exceeding 30 °C and fermented by the traditional method with two daily pumping. After fermentation the blanket was immersed for 30 days where he conducted the malolactic fermentation and extraction of soft tannins.
Wine is aged in new French of Allier oak barrels of 225 litre for 14 months. Ageing in bottle a minimum of 2 months after bottling.
It's a bright red, rich, full body, with a big structure and an harmonious balance between red fruits and the oak scents. In the tasting was smooth, intense, with a long, persistent and elegant finish.
A great wine for special occasions and refined cuisine. Excellent with a well-cured Portuguese ham from Barrancos or Chaves (ham of Portuguese origin) or Pata Negra, also a great complement to game, roasted red meats and long-aged cheeses. We suggest serving this wine at a temperature of 16-18º C. We also recommend decanting the wine before serving it, as it is not very filtered, it gains in flavor and aroma with a prior oxygenation of 15 minutes.
