Winemaking:
From our reserves of Moscatel de Setúbal, we selected a batch of several vintages, aged for more than 5 years, comprising wines with a minimum of 5 years of aging. Each harvest originated from certified vineyards in the Setúbal Demarcated Region. The winemaking technology used was the traditional one employed in Setúbal DO wines from this region: after a short fermentation of the must in contact with the skins, selected wine brandy was added which, by stopping the fermentation, allowed the preservation of the original sweetness of the grapes. The wines from each vintage were kept in contact with the skins during the winter following each harvest, and then the must was pressed. Subsequently, they aged in 225-liter oak barrels in a special warehouse where large temperature variations occur. These aging conditions result in a concentration and intensity of aromas and flavors, which further accentuate the unique personality of these fortified wines.
