Vinification Method

Classic fermentation method in stainless steel vats, 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

The wine ages in bottle during 1 month after bottling.

Tasting Notes

This deep ruby red, medium-bodied wine has berry fruit flavours and a beautiful balance. It’s fruity, tasty, and very pleasant and elegant. PORTADA means in the Portuguese language the outside or inside doors of the windows. João Paulo Martins; Vinhos de Portugal 2016; "Tasted in 2015. It is especially in restaurants. Blended wine from various grape varieties. The English market absorbs almost two million bottles. Good aromatic balance, the fruit is fresh and is very attractive, very capable for food and shows a lot of versatility to the table. Round and polished without hard tannins, in has a full mouth tasting, light presence of sugar and shows a good gastronomic aptitude. As wine to drink in the year is very good."

How to Serve

It’s the perfect “happy hour” red wine, a great day by day wine. It’s excellent with food or by itself. Excellent complement of white and red meat dishes, roasts, barbecue, pasta, pizzas, vegetarian, Mexican, India, Thai and Chinese gastronomies, cheese dishes. We recommend to serve at the temperature of 16-18ºC.
