Winemaking Details
Viticulture:
The wet winter of 2014/15 was followed by a mellow spring with early flowering. May and June did not present a risk of disease so the yields were not affected. Summer was hot and dry leading to an early harvest, which took place during the first week of September. The hand picked grapes were brought to the winery and sorted during the first week of October.
Fermentation:
Fermented in stainless steel tanks for 10 days, with temperature of 23ªC. Major pumping was avoided to avoid extraction of dry tannins. Bottled in March 2017
Winemaker:
Teresa Batista
