Production Details Hand-picked fruit from organically farmed Quinta de Nápoles vineyards (Royat-trained, 4,000 vines/ha, 100–360 m elevation) was meticulously sorted and fermented spontaneously at low temperature with 50% stems for about one month. After alcoholic fermentation, the wine was pressed into stainless steel for malolactic fermentation and four months of maturation, then transferred after winter to a 5,000 L old wooden vat previously used for Port for a further 12 months. Additional producer fields report dry extract 21.10, volatile acidity 0.50, free SO2 15 and density 0.9913 without displaying their units in the JSON response; energy is listed as 67 kcal/280 kJ without an explicit population basis and is therefore not mapped to calories per 100 ml.
Certifications SATIVA (organic certification)
Tasting Notes Restrained and quietly expressive; wild strawberry, dried herbs, violet, graphite and tobacco; dry, finely structured and linear, with firm tannins, red berries, herbal and earthy nuances, and a long tobacco-tinged finish.
Food Pairing Pork and beans, lamprey, oven-roasted kid goat, Minho-style rojões, or vegetarian lentil and beetroot dishes
