A pretty classic Douro blend of 38% Touriga Franca, 32% Touriga Nacional, 23% Tinto Roriz, 7% Tinta Barroca. Vinification took place at the start of the art winery at Quinta do Seixo in the Cima Corgo and Quinta da Leda in the Douro Superior. The grapes underwent destemming and soft crushing before being transferred to stainless steel tanks for alcoholic fermentation. During the fermentation, gentle maceration took place at controlled temperatures in order to obtain the ideal amount of extraction. Ageing took place in used French oak barrels for roughly 12 months. Ruby in colour, this wine opens with an intense nose of raspberry, blackberry, cedar and subtle hints of tobacco. The palate delivers a refreshing acidity with further notes of fresh red fruit that are continued throughout the long finish.
