Analytical Data
Wine Production
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. Vintage Port represents the very best produce of a single outstanding year. It remains in vat for only about 2 years and then ages in bottle.
