Trincadeira

Bright ruby colour accompanies young forest fruit. The palate is light, with good texture and fine tannins. Castelão, Trincadeira and Touriga Nacional form the blend. After destemming and crushing, fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled stainless-steel tanks, followed by malolactic fermentation. The wine then remains in stainless steel for four months. Alcohol is 13 percent, and the bottle is closed with a screwcap.

Black fruit and ripe tannins define a rich, polished profile. Trincadeira and Alicante Bouschet form the blend, and the wine contains 14 percent alcohol. Grapes are harvested by hand and fermented at controlled temperature. Maturation lasts six months in French and American oak. Red fruit, cocoa and vanilla are also present in the profile. The wine comes from Alentejo in Portugal.
