Pre-fermentative maceration at controlled temperature of 10-12ºC. Fermentation takes places in  stainless steel “lagares” (troughs) with robotized treading at controlled tempertures not exceeding 30ºC, in order to obtain the greatest extraction possible of skin constituents. In order to enhance the quality and the desired wine profile, a strict selection of sprits has taken place and marks the difference through its organoleptic elegance. Aged for 4 years in French oak barrels.

From very old Douro vineyards, some of them more than 100 years old, and indigenous grape varieties. The aromatic intensity originate from the grape varieties Tourgia Franca and Tourgia Nacional. Sousão contributes for the wine's structure and concentration, and Tinto Cão for its freshness and elegance.
