Maturation: After the harvest, the wine remained in the Douro, where it was subject to its first racking during the winter. The following spring, it was transferred to Vila Nova de Gaia, where began the traditional aging process for Port Wines in oak casks. During this period, the wines were subject to racking, analysis and testing to monitor the aging process. The final lot was obtained only further to rigorous selection of the wines, only those of the highest quality being used Consumption temperature: 16-18º
Harvest year: 2016 Allergens: Sulphites
Enólogos: Luís Sottomayor Tone: This wine has an opaque, almost black colour
Tasting Notes - Aroma: The aroma is intense and complex, with prominent notes of well-ripened black fruit, resin as well as hints of cocoa and chocolate as a result of its excellent maturation Tasting Notes - Palate: Great volume on the palate with a vibrant and fresh acidity, firm high quality tannins, floral notes of rockrose and hints of black fruit and chocolate. A great invitation for a very long and elegant finish
Vintage / Winemaking: Using traditional Porto Wine technology, this wine was vinified at the Quinta do Seixo winery from grapes originating both there and at Quinta do Vau. Further to the selection process, the grapes were subject to soft-crushing and destemming before undergoing a very intense maceration, during alcoholic fermentation, via treading in granite lagares at automatically controlled temperatures. The balance and harmony of this wine, as well as its body and structure, result from selecting the best grapes, the intensity of maceration and from choosing the right moment to stop fermentation
