Grape Varieties: Old Vines - Field Blend.

Tasting Note: Opaque in colour. Very expressive on the nose, showing fresh notes of berry fruit in perfect harmony with delicate hints of gum cistus. Vigorous attack on the palate, evolving into a solid wine, with a compact structure of massive yet elegant tannins that are well integrated with the berry fruit flavours. Balanced and lingering finish. Bottled without filtration, this wine meets all the conditions for evolving positively in the bottle.

Vinification: The grapes from old vines are hand-picked and taken to the winery in plastic boxes. On arrival in the winery they are rigorously inspected on a sorting table. The grapes with their stems are then slightly crushed and transferred to a traditional stone tank where they are foot trodden. After this, the grape spirit is added to stop the fermentation and fortify the wine.

Ageing: About two years in large Portuguese oak vats. Bottled without fining or filtration; a light sediment may form in the bottle over time.

Gastronomy: Serving temperature 14-16ºC.

Winemaker: Manuel Lobo
