The vines are located in the temperate sub-region of Vidigueira; for Touriga Nacional, Rocim mentions sandy soils, while a retailer describes the site as schist-dominated. After hand-harvesting and strict sorting, the grapes are fermented in a stone lagar by foot treading. The wine matures for eleven months in French oak barrels, followed by three months in bottle. It shows floral, mentholated and spicy notes, red and black fruit, good freshness and firm, structured tannins or, in the younger vintage, polished tannins. The current product page mentions a ruby to violet colour and good ageing potential.
