The wine is made from 100% Cabernet Sauvignon grapes grown in the Quinta da Bacalhôa vineyard, which benefits from a unique microclimate and soil composition. The winemaking process involves careful selection of the grapes, followed by fermentation and aging in French oak barrel. The resulting wine is a full-bodied and complex Cabernet Sauvignon, with notes of blackcurrant, blackberry, and vanilla, and a long and elegant finish. This wine is a perfect choice for those who appreciate high-quality, terroir-driven wines with a distinct Portuguese character.
