Traditional Port winemaking method. After partial stripping of the grapes and light crushing, fermentation with skin maceration follows. Fermentation occurs at controlled temperature and is interrupted by the addition of brandy (aguardente). The entire winemaking process is monitored by the winemaking team, taking into account the type of grape, its degree of ripeness, and the desired sweetness. A blend of selected wines from various years of age is aged in oak barrels for an average of 5 years.
