Horta Osório Reserve Magnum Red
After manual harvesting, the grapes are transported in boxes of 18 kg capacity so as not to harm the integrity of the bunch. Once at the cellar, the boxes are unloaded onto a sorting mat for the first sorting of the grapes. This was followed by destemming, choosing berry by berry and crushing them, which are transported by gravity to stainless steel fermentation tanks. After 48 hours of pre-fermentation maceration at low temperatures, alcoholic fermentation took place for 10 days where, depending on the variety and the plot, a protocol of pumping over and deletions was carried out. After malolactic fermentation, the different components aged in 225 L oak barrels for 18 months. After bottling, the wine aged for another 12 months in the bottle. It is a ruby colored wine with deep intensity. In the aroma, it presents notes of ripe black fruit, woods and balsamic nuances characteristic of the terroir of the H.O, in perfect harmony with the spicy and complex notes of the Old Vineyards. In the mouth, it presents structuring tannins balanced by the natural freshness of the wine and in harmony with the notes of aging in barrel.
