Porto Tawny

The vines are located in the Gontelho terroir in the Cima Corgo subregion, on schist-rich soils at an altitude of 250 to 350 metres; the area specified for this wine covers 6 hectares. The grapes are partly destemmed, mechanically crushed and fermented in the lagar with indigenous yeasts. Fermentation is stopped with 77-percent wine spirit. The wine is matured in 550-litre casks made from wood over 50 years old. The style is balanced and elegant, with sweetness, ripe fruit and oxidative oak notes; around 15,000 numbered bottles are filled at the estate each year.
