Hand-picked at the optimum time, the grapes are then destemmed, crushed and converted into wine through a process of careful maceration to extract their colour, tannins and aromas, enhanced by constant churning during fermentation. This takes place in vats at a controlled temperature (between 28-30?C) until the right degree of sweetness (baum?) is achieved. At this point, grape brandy is added to create the final fortified wine. A wine of high quality, made fro one single harvest. A Colheita wine matures in oak barrels for periods of time that can vary, but never less than 7 years. It is then bottled and sold according to the demands of the market.
Grape Varieties:
Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca, Tinta Roriz
Tasting Notes:
Brownish brick colour. Exuberant and intense nose with aromas of jammy fruit wel combined with aromas of black plum, liquorice and spice. Smooth and elegant in the mouth, with firm silky tannins merging wonderfully into a dense and refreshing end of mouth.
