The grapes for this character rosé come from a 50-year-old vineyard in Olho Marinho, a small village in the dunes between Peniche and Obidos.only 96 bottles for Belgium
Volume | 75.0cl |
Grape Variety | Castelão |
Drinking window | 2024-2029 |
Alc. | 11.0% |
Vinification | The juice did a fermentation with clusters from white grapes during 10 days |
Ripening | 23 months (!!!) in aged barrels, resulting in a rosé that far exceeds the standard of rosé. Finally bottled in 2023, using only gravity (not siphoning the wine with a pump minimizes the "shock" at bottling; admittedly, for the winemaker, this method is not the most practical). |
