The jewel in the crown. Its freshness and minerality make it appetizing when young, but it can age for decades.
Grape varieties: Traditional Port Wine varieties – mainly Touriga Nacional and Touriga Franca, with a little Sousão from the older varieties.
Tasting Note: A beautiful, dark violet colour and strong aromatic intensity. Complex aroma, black fruit, floral and spicy. In the mouth, it maintains all its intensity without losing any energy or freshness. Well structured, like any classic vintage, it will certainly evolve in the bottle for several decades, but it is so rich and seductive that it is difficult to resist opening the bottle while it is still young.
Vinification: Foot-trodden in granite presses for 3 or 4 nights, with careful temperature control. Aged in oak barrels for 24 months before bottling.
