Tasting Notes:
Bright brown colour with orange hints. Seductive nose, complex, with dried fruit
nuances, as figs, and delicate caramel. Well structured, of great dimension and
softness. Expressive and endless finish.

Vinification
Hand-harvested at their best moment, the grapes are destemmed, crushed and vinified in a careful maceration with extraction of colour, tannins and aromas of the pellicles, complemented by permanent pumping-over during fermentation. This
process takes place in vats at a controlled temperature between 28-30ºC, until reaching the desired Baumé. At this phase grape brandy is added to produce a fortified wine. Matured in wood for at least 7 years.
Reviews: "“The aroma is reminiscent of a Madeira with dried apricot, walnuts and mahogany. Medium-full bodied with richness and hints of mild spirit along with nutty pecan and marmalade flavors; quite concentrated and smooth in the mouth, showing a charismatic finish.” 91 points 6/5/10 Roy Hersh, ForTheLOveOfPort"
