Quinta da Falorca Noblesse Oblige Red

Selective manual harvest in 25kg buckets. Gentle pressing of the whole bunch, with decantation after 12 hours of sedimentation. Fermented by indigenous yeasts with temperature control. Aging in 15% used French oak barrels and 85% in vertical stainless steel vats. Expressive aroma of tropical fruit combined with spices. Fresh, saline and elegant in the mouth.

Vinification of Syrah and Touriga Franca in open presses with automatic treading and high extraction work. Alicante Bouschet vinification in stainless steel vats at lower temperatures (26ºC). The aim is to extract the structure of Syrah, the sharp tannins of Touriga Franca and the freshness, exuberance of fruit and elegance of Alicante Bouschet. The batch spent 8 months in new French oak barrels. Encantado shows all the vitality of Touriga Franca that serves as a great base for this wine. The angular and present tannins, the ripe fruit in balance with the aromas of the forest it presents, make it a table companion. The barrel present, but without helping the one-dimensionality of the set, makes this wine a wine with layers that rise throughout the tasting. Contains sulfites.

Fresh grapes at their ideal point of maturation, picked by hand into 20 kg boxes, are transported to the cellar where they were subjected to a careful manual selection. They are destemmed, crushed and macerated for 48 hours, followed by French oak barrels, where they ferment and stash. This wine is a batch of wines from several years. It presents an intense straw color. Aromas of bread, honey, grapefruit, white flowers and wet stone. In the mouth it is a wine filled with layers, very voluminous and full of energy given its persistent freshness. Contains sulfites.
