Winemaking Details
Viticulture:
The weather in 2023 was characterized by hot and humid conditions. Temperatures remained consistently above the long-term average until August. The year saw above-average rainfall, particularly in December 2022 and June 2023, which continued through the harvest period, posing challenges for us.
Fermentation:
After gentle pressing, the must underwent slow fermentation in barrels with regular batonnage.
Aging:
The wine matured in barrels for 7 months, undergoing batonnage once a week to enhance complexity.
Winemakers:
Ricardo Sampaio and Mariana Rosária
