O Produtor, tasting note published in May 23rd 2017
Rich and attractive wine, with a ruby colour and a lively bouquet of red fruits, very well balanced with spicy aromas originating from its partial maturation in oak casks. It is modern and fresh, full of harmony in the mouth due to the balance of its components and the elegance of its soft tannins.
Vinification : Grapes were hand picked, had a total stalk removal and were gently crushed and kept in stainless steel vats where the fermentation was done with a temperature control of 26º to 28ºC.
Ageing : Stainless steel vats and 2nd year French oak barrels (8 months)
