Vinification
100% Loureiro from a plot of old vines planted in the late 80’s of the last century. 80% was lot fermented in stainless steel. 20% of the wine was aged in 3-year-old French oak barrels with no toast for 6 months. The grapes are hand-harvested in small boxes. Harvesting was carried out in mid-September under dry and moderate temperature. The wine remained on its lees for 9 months. Bottled in May 2020. Includes 10% of a blend from the previous year’s harvest aged in barrels with partial tanning.
