Quinta Nova
Vinification: The pressing follows the method used in the French region of Provence, with whole grapes, employing the renowned blanc de noirs technique. Structured through low-temperature fermentation (11-12ºC), 50% of the batch ferments and ages in used French oak barrels, adding depth and complexity; 25% ferments and ages in cement vats, enhancing fresh notes and a vibrant texture; and the remaining 25% ferments and is kept in stainless steel tanks, preserving the purity of the fruit. Bottled in December 2024.
Winemaking: António Bastos and Jorge Alves.
Viticulture: Ana Mota.
