Total destemming, gentle crushing and thermal shock, followed by a period of pre-fermentation cold maceration in a lagar for about 12 to 24 hours. Malolactic fermentation occurred naturally, with part of the wine undergoing this fermentation in wood. On the nose, very fresh and intense, with predominant notes of wild berries and black cherries in balance with seductive "nuances of Liquorice," the aroma being complexed by the notes of wood. On the palate it is concentrated, warm, with firm tannins and a smooth texture, a very intense and persistent finish showing the vigor of the wines of the Douro Superior. Contains sulfites.
