Grape varietiesTouriga Nacional and Franca predominate, combined with other traditional grape varieties from the region.
Viticultural YearThe viticultural year of 2021/2022 was characterized by a warm and dry winter, followed by an abnormally hot and dry spring and summer. Notable features include the low precipitation throughout most of the vegetative cycle and the high temperatures recorded in May, July, and August, which had a significant impact on the vine and grape ripening.
EnologistJorge Coutinho
VinificationThe grapes are harvested into 20kg boxes and received at the winery (High Score). Manual sorting and destemming is followed by crushing in a granite press with traditional treading, maceration and alcoholic fermentation between the press and stainless steel vats.
MaturationAfter fermentation, in granite mills with foot treading and temperature control, maturation takes place over 12 months in a blend of stainless steel vats and French oak barrels.
KeepAfter bottling, it must age for 2 months in the bottle to be fully enjoyed, with the certainty that it will benefit from maturing in the bottle, keeping all its characteristics intact for at least 10 years.
DrinkingServe at 16°-18°, ideal with more intense dishes, meats and cheeses.
Tasting NotesOpen color, with an intense ruby hue. The nose is very elegant and fresh, with a predominance of vibrant red fruit. The tannins are present but already well-rounded, suggesting it may improve with time. It is also very elegant on the palate, with freshness and acidity that indicate good aging potential. Persistent finish. It would pair well with a timbale of 'pica no chão'
Technical Sheet14% alcohol, 5,1 g/dm3 total acidity, 3,90 pH and 82 kcal/100ml.
