Vicentino Gama Poente Colheita Red
Each variety ferments separately for 10 days at 26ºC, followed by a period of prolonged maceration, in contact with the skins. The stage is partial, in French oak barrels, for 8 months. The red Vicentino is the wine that best portrays the fusion between the warm Alentejo plains and the freshness of the Vicentina Coast. Its intense aroma of ripe red fruit is complemented in the mouth by the tannins softened by the barrel and the acidity that the fresh Atlantic breeze kept. After tasting, the palate feels filled with a round and elegant wine, and an admirable aromatic persistence.
Montes Claros Reserva Red
The grapes, from previously selected vines and in general from vines over 30 years old, follow a strict control of maturation to determine the optimum height of manual harvesting. At the cellar, the grapes arrived in optimum conditions and the partial destemming and crushing of the grapes began, followed by fermentation and a prolonged maceration of 10 to 12 days, to extract the best aromas and all the complexity of the fruit. This was followed by malolactic fermentation, partly in stainless steel tanks and partly in wooden barrels. For greater complexity, structure and richness, the final blend selected aged 12 months in 2nd and 3rd year barrels of French and American oak, and 6 months in the bottle for final refinement. Clear appearance, deep garnet color. Rich and full aroma, showing aromas of jam, jam and cocoa. Soft, full-bodied and complex flavor, highlighted by notes of very ripe black fruits and robust, persistent tannins, which guarantee longevity. Contains sulfites.
José de Sousa Red
In the cellar José de Sousa still some ancestor techniques of vinification are used, being the most emblematic the use of the carving in the fermentation of the grapes. The essentials of small-scale winemaking have changed in recent centuries. In this wine, a small part is made according to this Roman process, the red grapes previously trodden on foot and destemmed by hand on a table called "table of ripanço". Afterwards, a small part of the must, the films and the stench are fermented in the clay pots, and another in the wine press. The remainder of the brand is fermented in stainless steel vats. The use of cutlery confers spices and a third dimension to wine. After fermentation, the wine has a skin maceration of 4 weeks, followed by 9 months in French and American oak casks. Red color loaded with scented dates, hay, plums, toasted bread, a little clove, oak wood, vanilla, chocolate. Palate with good fruit, good acidity, tannins present but soft. Long end of test. Contains Sulfites.
