Vinification: Grapes produced in vineyards certified in an integrated production system and approved for wine DOC Alentejo sub-region Borba, were harvested manually in the morning, allowing a good temperature of the fruit upon arrival at the winery, facilitating control over the quality of the must and subsequently in wine.
At the winery, after de-stemming and crushing the grapes, the must is drained and pressed, safeguarding the qualitative and varietal characteristics of the must. The tear must (must that flows without pressing) clarifies for 18 to 24 hours and ferments at a constant temperature of 18ºC, over 14 days. After a period during which the wine stabilizes through physical processes, it is bottled after winter.
Tasting Notes: This wine has a citrus color.
The aroma is young and intense with notes of citrus fruits and orange blossom.
The flavor is very fresh, unctuous and has a harmony between green apple acidity, minerality and persistent tropical fruits.
