The grapes come from vines on a small granite plateau at around 600 metres above sea level near Freixo de Numão. After cooling, pneumatic pressing and cold settling, the wine ferments in French oak casks and stainless steel; around 30 per cent matures for six to eight months in new and used casks, while the remainder stays in tank, with regular bâtonnage. The style shows citrus and white fruit, light tropical and herbal notes, pronounced acidity, minerality and a dry, structured body.
