NOTES
FARMING: Biodynamic
SOIL: Granite
VINEYARD: All estate fruit owned by Elisa and her family. Two of the vineyards are close to Oliveira do Hospital, not far from each other: in a straight line, they are not more than 2 km apart. The other vineyards are close to Gouveia, closer to the Serra da Estrela mountain range. All of the vineyards are 500 to 550 meters in altitude.
VINIFICATION: All the grapes are hand picked. In the winery, the juice ferments naturally in open vats with traditional treading amid controlled temperature. The fermentation begins naturally, with natural yeast from the vines, to express its identity in the purest form.
