The grapes come from two parcels planted in 2001 and 2017 near Estremoz, with schist and limestone soils. They were fermented together in new and used 600-litre French barriques and remained there for eleven months on the fine lees. The wine shows a bright, almost fluorescent yellow colour and aromas of dried yellow flowers, citrus fruit, herbs, beeswax and brioche. On the palate, it combines fine texture with freshness, balanced acidity and subtle phenolic tension. 1.730 bottles and 290 magnums were produced; the wine was bottled in August 2024.
