Viticulture and Winemaking: All bunches entering the winery are passed over a sorting table and subjected to intensive quality control. The grapes are gently crushed and moved by gravity into temperature regulated vats. Both alcoholic and malolactic fermentation occurred naturally with no inoculation. The post fermentation maceration on skins lasted for 28 days. Fining was with egg whites. This wine is a natural product that was lightly filtered and may cast a deposit over time
Food pairing: Enjoy with roasted, slightly caramelized red meat or game with black fruit jelly. Match also with a powerful Portuguese cheese from Azeitão or a traditional Roquefort.
Colour: Concentrated ruby-violet color.
Aroma: Generous nose, with very smooth aromas of cigar box, leather, some spices and black currants.
Palate: Full bodied, very smooth and rich. Good freshness. In the mouth is full, with very ripe firm tannins. Audacious.
