Winemaking:
Hand-picked grapes, were fully destemmed and immediately crushed. The grapes were fermented by grape variety with rigorous selection, so the final blend was what we wanted. This is the Old World of making wine, by selecting grapes by vineyard and lots in the winery. Fermentation in small stainless steel vats, with temperatures around 28 ºC. Smooth and controlled maceration, to get elegant and aromatic wines. Part of the wine ages 18 months in second and third use American oak barrels.

Intense and great value.

Very intense fruit and good viscosity<br /> Had never tried a Douro wine but not disappointed.<br /> Deep red colour adds to the enjoyment,as well as the long lingering taste on the tongue.Slow sipping recommended and perfect with cheese and beef.5star value.
