Vineyard blend in different winemaking styles. Gouveio, Malvasia Fina, Cercial do Douro and Verdelho ferment freely in tanks and barrels, partly through carbonic fermentation. Minerality and salinity, good volume and freshness.
A blend of five grape varieties, vinified in two different ways: in traditional lagares (traditional stone troughs) and in stainless steel. It was aged for 18 months in oak barrels. Very appealing in aroma, with ripe fruit but with extraction at just the right point to maintain balance.
