Picked by hand at the optimum time, the grapes are peeled, crushed and transformed into wine through careful maceration to extract their colour, tannins and aromas, which are enhanced by constant stirring during fermentation. This is done in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature between 28 and 30°C until the right degree of sweetness (Baumé) is reached. At this point grape brandy is added to produce the final liqueur wine. This is a high quality wine made by blending wines from different harvests to obtain the sensory qualities typical of these aged yellow-brown port wines. These wines are each aged in oak barrels for different periods of time, with the average age of all the wines in the blend determining the age on the label. The resulting blend expresses the characteristics given by the ageing in wood.Tasting notes:Gold with amber accents in the glass.
