Exam Notes

 Color: A wine with a vibrant color and clear appearance.

Aroma: On the nose, it presents notes of ripe fruit and black berries. The floral, violet character of Touriga is also present.

Palate: Some sweet aromas resulting from aging in wood give it some complexity and harmony. On the palate it is full-bodied, with a fresh and persistent finish, showing a good balance between natural acidity and structure. The mineral character of the granitic soils of the region makes the wine more elegant, mineral and fresh with good acidity.

Harmonization: It pairs well with meat dishes, sausages, as well as cured cheese and desserts.

Service: Serve at a temperature of around 16ºC in a wide glass and decant if possible.

Storage: Bottles should be stored horizontally in a dark, clean, well-ventilated place with normal, moderate temperature and constant humidity conditions.

Winemaking: The harvest is done by hand and the grapes are transported to the winery in small boxes. This is followed by total destemming, crushing, and transfer to stainless steel tanks where fermentation takes place at a controlled temperature of around 24 to 28°C with very careful maceration until all sugars are exhausted.
Once alcoholic fermentation is complete, the wine is transferred to another stainless steel tank where it remains until the end of malolactic fermentation.
This is followed by 12 months of aging in new and semi-new barrels with the aim of adding some complexity and rounding out some of the tannins.
Before bottling, it undergoes only a slight fining with vegetable agents, followed by filtration immediately before bottling in order to preserve its full aromatic potential.

Aging: For immediate consumption or storage for a few years.
