The grapes come from vineyards in the Dão with calcareous soils. The wine is fermented in French oak casks and then matured for 20 months on the fine lees in the same casks. Spontaneous fermentation has not been clearly documented for this vintage. Stylistically, it is dry, fresh and mineral, with white stone fruit, fine reduction, pronounced acidity, a salty finish and a medium body. The extended lees ageing lends it additional density and spice.
