Barbeito
Grapes from various quality vineyards from Estreito de Câmara de Lobos and São Vicente were used. Grapes were pressed in a pneumatic press. Arresting of fermentation takes place at the desired degree of sweetness by adding vinic alcohol (96%). This wine achieves its unique characteristics by the estufagem process. It is then matured in oak casks for up to 3 years before blended and bottled. Very deep chocolate colour. Notes of raisins, hazelnuts, molasses and caramel. Full, good texture, soft and a bit of sweetness in the aftertaste. |
