Description

From the best plots of Quinta da Carregosa, the grapes were hand-harvested from the areas that showed the most balanced ripeness. The grapes are subjected to crushing and total destemming. This is followed by a 24-hour pre-fermentation maceration period at 30ºC to maximize the action of the grape enzymes responsible for extracting color and aromas.

Selected yeasts are used to induce alcoholic fermentation, which takes place between 22ºC and 24ºC for a minimum of 10 days. Malolactic fermentation is induced with temperature control.

TEST NOTES
COLOR: Deep ruby.
AROMA: Intense aroma of black fruits, wild blackberry and cassis, with notes of spice and vanilla.
TASTE: Silky texture, fine tannins; intense; good concentration; beautiful structure, with magnificent transparency; long finish with great precision and very persistent.

STORAGE: Store the bottle lying down at room temperature with a small temperature range (14ºC to 18ºC), 60% humidity, and away from light.
