Clima<\/td>\nO ano vit\u00edcola de 2022\/2023 caracterizou-se por um Inverno quente e chuvoso, que permitiu uma recupera\u00e7\u00e3o parcial das reservas h\u00eddricas dos solos, ap\u00f3s o ano anterior extremamente seco. A Primavera foi muito quente e seca, com destaque para o m\u00eas de Abril, com precipita\u00e7\u00e3o muito abaixo da Normal Climatol\u00f3gica e temperaturas acima da m\u00e9dia. O Ver\u00e3o continuou quente e seco, com temperaturas que ultrapassaram os 44 \u00b0C no Pinh\u00e3o em Agosto, condicionando a matura\u00e7\u00e3o da uva e antecipando a vindima.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

Vinification<\/td>\nThe 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.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Maturation<\/td>\nAfter 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.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Keep<\/td>\nAfter 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.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Drinking<\/td>\nServe at 16\u00b0-18\u00b0, ideal with more intense dishes, meats and cheeses.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Tasting Notes<\/td>\nOpen 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 ch\u00e3o'<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Technical Sheet<\/td>\n14% alcohol, 5,1 g\/dm3 total acidity, 3,90 pH and 82 kcal\/100ml.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
