Garnet in colour, with an expressive nose of red fruit notes, perfectly balanced by delicate forest and fine spice aromas. Easy and approachable from the first sip, the character develops on the palate into a wine of excellent volume and fine texture. This embodies all the freshness and elegance that the Tinta Francisca and Touriga Nacional grapes deliver when planted at an altitude of 430 metres, in a vineyard with with a north-facing aspect: seductively soft, with restrained alcohol and a fresh, elegant finish.

The grapes are completely destemmed with only a light crushing. Fermentation is in temperature-controlled stainless-steel tanks for 4 days in contact with the grape skins, with very gentle extraction. After pressing it is transferred to wooden barrels to complete fermentation.
