Night mechanized harvest and grapes chosen on selection table.
Full destemming followed by cold pass-over by heat exchanger.
Fermentation made in small stainless-steel tanks and controlled temperature to preserve aromatic elegance.
Following fermentation, ageing is made on oak barrels, 80% French and 20% American, for 12 months and equal period bottled.

Clear, grenade color, it appears with an aromatic intense profile on the nose suggesting mature fruits, with slight wooden notes and suggestion of spices.
It appears full-bodied and well balanced on the palate, with robust tannins and well combined acidity, closing with a long and elegant finale.

We invite you for a toast with this red wine, accompanied with roasted kid or typical Alentejano lamb or grilled well spiced fat meats.
Recommended drinking temperature 16º a 18º.
