Each of the 3 grapes varieties in this wine was harvested and vinified separately at its own ideal maturation time. Alcoholic fermentation lasted seven days and both the Cabernet Sauvignon and Touriga Nacional musts were kept in extended maceration for one month – Cuvaison - until the end of the malolactic fermentation. Once the vinification period was completed, the wine was blended and aged in new French oak barrels for 16 months.
