Through unique characteristics in its terroir, Vidigueira is synonymous of wine. With big temperature amplitude between day and night, the protection of Serra do Mendro promotes the maintenance of morning humidity in the vineyards. Mainly fractures schist soils and typical grape varieties, deeply adapted to the region, translate into the glass, the heritage of a land of wine.
In old vineyards, Trincadeira and Aragonez grapes, are harvested by hand. The ripening point chosen, seeks fresh fruit, crisp acidity and lightness of body.
Low intervention winemaking begins with foot treading. The start of spontaneous fermentation takes it to the press and only the liquid fraction is sent to small stainless-steel tanks. With total aging in a stainless-steel tank, the purity of the fruit and the natural texture of the wine are maintained without intervention.
After decanting, we bottle an unfiltered, unstabilized wine.
