For this wine, the most ancient Antão Vaz grape varieties are selected. The grapes are picked at night and transported by refrigerated truck. As soon as they arrive at the winery, the grapes are pressed and the must is fermented in new Hungarian oak barrels. After alcoholic fermentation, the wine is bottled and the bottles sealed. After ageing in barrels, the wine is bottled and immersed in the Alqueva lake, where it matures at a depth of 30 metres in unique and excellent conditions for 8 months.
