Winemaking:
Vinification took place at the Quinta de Azevedo winery. On arrival, the grapes were carefully treated and gently fearless, in order to fully preserve their character. The channeling of the must is done using temperature controls and protected from oxidation by the use of inert gases. Soft crushing follows in a pneumatic press with some pre-fermentative maceration. Alcoholic fermentation takes place at temperatures between 16ºC-18ºC. During maceration, around 40% of the batch fermented in contact with the grape skins. This wine matured in stainless steel tanks with “bâtonnage”, stirring of the lees, for 3 months.
Grape Varieties:
Alvarinho
