Winemaking:
This wine was produced from selected grapes planted in the vast chalky-clay and schist plains in Borba. When they arrive to the winery the grapes are destemmed and crushed. The alcoholic fermentation then takes place at a controlled temperature of 25ºC. During this period the maceration occurs for 7 days by using the pumping method so as to optimise the extraction of colour, aromas and flavours. The next phase is the malolactic fermentation which is a very important step that allows the wine to become softer and smoother. After the period during which the wine stabilises in stainless steel vats by using physical processes, the wine is filtered before being bottled in the following spring.

Try it

It might be the cheapest one here but it is also a very smooth and easy drinker

Balanced

Medium body with young notes of red berries. Soft tannis with balanced flavour. Got it on a deal, very good value for money.

An everyday favourite

I like the slightly lighter Portuguese wines. This is light but with a good flavour and a great price. The White is equally good!

O MEU VINHO PREFERIDO

Há anos que bebo este vinho, pelo facto de achar a qualidade/preço equilibrada e, sobretudo porque me agrada muito ao paladar.<br /> Não sou um entendido em vinhos mas, um apreciador que bebe com moderação às refeições e, esporadicamente, em situações de algum petisco que ligue com esta bebida alcoolica.<br /> Em suma, continuarei a previligiar este vinho que já considero um companheiro assíduo das minhas principais refeições - almoço e jantar.<br /> Com os meus cumprimentos, e consideração
