Quinta do Crasto

The grapes from the best Tinta Roriz field at Quinta do Crasto were transported in boxes of 22 kg of food plastic and subjected to a rigorous sorting at the entrance of the winery. After a traditional mill tread, the masses were transferred to an open-top stainless steel vat and mechanical stems where they were fermented for 10 days at controlled temperature. After the alcoholic fermentation the grapes were gently pressed in hydraulic presses. Aged in new barrels of 225 liters of French oak for 18 months. It has an opaque, violet color laden with aroma of excellent aromatic intensity, where notes of ripe red fruits stand out, fresh notes of esteva, which resemble menthol notes. Very complex and inviting aroma. In the mouth has a powerful beginning, evolved to a wine of great volume, massive tannins but of elegant texture. All very well wrapped in retro nose scents that resemble red fruits. A very gastronomic wine of seductive character that finishes balanced and persistent. Contains Sulfites.
