	Ce que le site du producteur en dit ; Vinification: From some of the best vineyards in the region,grapes were selectively hand picked into 20kg harvest boxes and transported to the winery using refrigerated trucks. Using out of the ordinary vinification methods for the region the fermentation occurred spontaneously without the addition of cultured yeasts and an additional 20 day maceration took place to allow the release of all the desirable aroma and flavour compounds from the grapes Ageing: 50% of the wine had 9 months in French oak barrels (fine grain medium toast +) the rest aged in steel tanks Alcohol: 14.5% by Volume Production: 65.000 in 0.75L and 5,000 in 0,375L Launch date: November 2007 Storage: 16-18ºC Service: Best served at 18ºC, to be enjoyed at 20ºC Food Pairing: This wine combines well with both white and red meats in either traditional or modern cuisine Winemaker’s notes: Deep ruby-violet color. Warm aroma of woodland fruits combining with spicy and caramel notes from good French oak. Full bodied, with ripe, well-rounded tannins and an intense black fruit flavor. Refreshing acidity and a very persistent finish. Viticulturist: David Booth Winemaker: António Maçanita
