TASTE HISTORY WITH THE OLDEST PORT WINE HOUSE

 

VINIFICATION

Hand-picked at the optimum time, the grapes are then destemmed, crushed and converted into wine through a process of careful maceration to extract their colour, tannins and aromas, enhanced by constant churning during fermentation. This takes place in vats (lagares) at a controlled temperature (between 28-30°C) until the right degree of sweetness (baumé) is achieved. At this point, grape brandy is added to create the nal fortied wine. A wine of high quality, made from one single harvest. A Colheita wine matures in oak barrels for periods of time that can vary, but never less than 7 years. It is then bottled and sold according to the demands of the market.

 

TASTING NOTES

Brick colour with amber rim. Elegant and intense on the nose, with aromas of nuts (walnut and almond), notes of spice, vanilla, lemon grass and hints of mint. On the palate it reveals excellent balance between sweetness and acidity, with notes of honey and spice, light notes of smoke and hints of ripe fruit. A balanced, long and intense Colheita.

 

RECOMMENDATIONS

Served chilled, it reveals all its nesse and sophistication, especially when drunk with desserts made with caramel, dried fruit and spices, such as caramel fondant with apple and ginger jelly, tarte tatin, crème brulée and medium-strength cheeses.
