Grape Varieties: Careful selection of white grapes from the Douro Demarcated Region, namely: Viosinho, Malvasia Fina, Gouveio, Arinto, Cercial and Rabigato.
Tasting Notes: A beautiful golden color. It presents a very complex aroma, highlighting dry fruits, such as hazelnuts, walnuts and toasted almonds, combined with aromas of orange, apricot, as well as toasted notes due to aging in old wooden barrels. In the mouth it is full, fresh, with a very well balanced acidity.
Vinification: Vinification according to the traditional Port Wine method. Afterwards, partial destemming with gentle crushing is followed by alcoholic fermentation with pellicular maceration. Fermentation takes place under controlled temperature and is stopped by the addition of wine brandy. The entire winemaking process, which is monitored by the oenology team, takes into account the grape varieties, their degree of maturation and the desired sweetness.
Ageing: Wine from a single harvest, aged in oak casks for a minimum period of 7 years. The year of bottling is indicated on the back label.
Consumption: This is a very versatile wine, as in addition to being an excellent aperitif, it can also be combined very well with "Foie gras", cheese, dessert, or simply enjoyed on its own.
Conservation: Bottle upright at a constant temperature and protected from intense light. After opening, consume preferably within 18 to 20 weeks.
