Production Details Small batches from the higher-lying, cooler parcels were trodden and fermented in modern lagares at the estate winery. Yield averaged 660 g per vine, and a larger-than-usual Sousão proportion was selected for its natural acidity. The PDF gives Baumé 3.56°. Separately, the live category page lists acidity 4.24 g/L on a tartaric-acid basis and Baumé 3.4 for its 2020 entry, conflicting with the vintage PDF's total acidity 4.8 g/L and Baumé 3.56°; the page figures are therefore not normalized into canonical analytical claims.
Tasting Notes Brambles, blackcurrant and rosebush fragrance; intense and powerful, with concentrated layers, acidity, fine-textured peppery tannins and a long dry finish
