VARIETALS
100% Baga

NOTES
FARMING: Biodynamic

SOIL: Clay and Chaulk

VINEYARD: Chalky clay midslopes with eastern orientation to the sun and a very intense Atlantic influence (only 15 km from the ocean). For this wine the grapes come from different small plots of very old vineyards (ca 80 years).

VINIFICATION: Partly de-stemmed, fermented in amphorae (500 –700 liter) with very little extraction and long maceration on the skins. After the fermentation the wine is aged in amphorae for 6 months.
