Made with Bual grapes and cask-aged for at least 10 years. Wines are aged in seasoned American oak casks in the traditional "canteiro" system. The wine is gently heated by warm air in the lofts of the company's south facing lodge in Funchal.
Over the years, the casks are transferred from the top floor to the middle floor and eventually to the ground floor where it is cooler. It is then racked and fined before the blend is assembled and bottled.
STORAGE Store the bottle horizontally in a dark place with constant cool temperature, ideally 55ºF.
TASTING NOTES:
Rich and intense with a hint of oxydation for the complexity of the wine. Flavors of Chocolate, Salted caramel and a little bit of minerality sustained by a good acidity.
