Winemaking Details
Viticulture:
The year 2015 was very atypical; there was a very cold and dry winter followed by an abnormally hot and dry spring and summer. Maturation was very slow, which forced us to wait a certain time before determining a sure date for the harvest. The rain in the middle of September was helpful to obtain perfect maturation.
Fermentation:
Fermented in stainless steel tanks for 5 days, with maceration occurring at up to 28ºC. 100% destemmed grapes. Unfiltered. Bottled in January 2017.
Winemaker:
Cláudia Quevedo
FOOD PAIRING
Chocolate, blue cheese
