TASTING NOTES

This wine presents pure and charming aromas, characterized by notes of citrus, peach, and white-fleshed fruits. On the palate, it offers a pure expression with very subtle oak notes behind the refined citrus fruit. A touch of peach and apricot adds depth to the wine. Its robust structure is complemented by a touch of grapefruit character. Full of flavor, the wine offers a long and refined finish.

VINIFICATION

The different grape varieties are destemmed and lightly crushed before pressing. The wines are fermented primarily in stainless steel tanks, with the exception of some Viosinho and Gouveio, which are fermented in 225-liter French oak barrels, totaling 20% of the blend. Ten percent of this oak is new. The goal is to maintain the aromatic finesse of the grape varieties and use the barrel-fermented wines for structure. No malolactic fermentation.

AGING

80% in stainless steel tanks, 10% in new barrels, 10% in second-year barrels.

The barrel-aged wines are turned three times a week for the first month after the completion of alcoholic fermentation. After that, only once a week for another three months. The total time in barrel is therefore five months.
