The grapes for the base wine of this sparkling wine are harvested with a moderate potential alcohol content. The must is removed from the press and ferments in old wooden barrels, where it rests. While it ages, it is cleaned and bottled the year following the harvest. It is a traditional method sparkling wine, fermented in bottles, with the remuage done by hand in wooden pupitres.
Being a natural brut, there is no added sugar in the expedition liqueur.
The aromatic profile of the red is very present here with the notes of the Baga variety, with some evolution, clearly noticeable. The acidity is good, but the tannins are difficult, and with this profile it is clearly suitable for summer barbecues, such as grilled sardines or pork. 15/20" - Wines of Portugal 2015 guide, João Paulo Martins, 2011 tasting
