Ageing |
As usual, Malvasia Fina fermented in oak 100%, no new barrel, fermentation with temperature controlled. All the grapes were whole bunches with direct pressurage. On the other hand, the freshness of the Verdelho was kept by a cold fermentation in stainless steel vat. |
Ideal Temperature |
10-12ºC |
Consumption |
To drink today, but may age well in bottle for several years to come. |
Aroma |
Fine aromatic nose that will open up in the glass, with some wild cedar notes. Lovely
structure. |
Flavour |
A good mineral backbone with some satisfying roundness in the mouth. |
