Rosé, Pormenor

Clean and light red in color. Great minerality and freshness on the nose with red fruit, strawberry and cherry with a touch of wood. On the palate, great fruit character, crisp acidity, good structure and intensity.

A blend of Tinta Roriz, Touriga Franca and Tinta Barroca. Grapes from old vines, above 50 years, planted at altitudes between 500m and 600m in Nagoselo do Douro, São João da Pesqueira – Cima Corgo. The grapes for this Pormenor Rosé were harvested in the second week of August in order to keep its natural acidity and restrained alcohol. After the sorting table, the best grapes were gently pressed, and the must was decanted for 24 hours. The fermentation was natural – spontaneous – with indigenous yeast, without any yeast addition. Fermentation and ageing with the lees for 7 months in used French oak barrels -225l, with no temperature control, no malolactic fermentation or battonage and minimum intervention until bottling.
