The vines are located near Estremoz at an altitude of around 450 m, in a continental-Mediterranean climate; the soils consist of schist, marble and limestone. After hand harvesting and eight hours of skin contact, the blend undergoes spontaneous fermentation at 18 °C for two to three weeks in stainless steel. The wine then matures in tank and for one year in bottle. It shows mineral, citrus and slightly underripe fruit aromas, medium body, good structure and unusually taut, fresh acidity. Residual sugar is 1,0 g/l and the pH is 3,32. ([quintadomouro.com](https://quintadomouro.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/Vinha-do-Mouro-Branco-2022-PT.pdf?utm_source=openai))
