Grapes: Arinto dos Açores, Verdelho, and Terrantez do Pico
Alcohol: 12.50% vol
Vinification: After harvest, the grapes are stored at low temperature for 24 hours. After this period, they are fully de-stemmed, crushed, and undergo a natural cold-temperature sedimentation process for 48 hours. The alcoholic fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks ranging from 50 to 1,000 liters. The temperature is controlled at 13ºC for 21 days. The blend is aged for 5 months on fine lees in stainless steel tanks and French oak barrels.
Tasting Notes: A complex nose with tropical notes, lemon, a hint of vegetal character, and marine notes that highlight its minerality. The palate is smooth and vibrant with balanced acidity. The finish is long, persistent, and complex, with pineapple notes and a saline sensation dominated by flint, taking us back to its origins.
