Tasting Notes
Deep brick in colour with a broad amber rim. Opulent aromas of dried fruit with notes of caramelised dulce de leche and a subtle hint of molasses. Seductive, enticing and delicate, laden with elegant flavours of dried fruit. Its texture is silky and deliciously creamy. A powerful wine with a remarkably elegant and persistent finish.

Vinification
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 (lagares) at a controlled temperature (between 28-30°C) until the right degree of sweetness (baumé) is achieved. At this point, grape brandy is added to create the final fortified wine. A wine of high quality, made from 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.
