Grapes	Several varieties from old vine with 60 years old with a predominance of Fernão Pires, Vital, Castelão and Baga
Soil	When they started to take care of this abandoned vineyard, with its old crooked vines, they didn't quite know what to expect from it, but they soon imagined making wine out of it. A vine wine. The mixture of grape varieties was so great in the vineyard that diversity was guaranteed, all that remained was to find the right point of maturation to harvest. Thus, they first picked the white grapes, which are mostly in the middle of September, by hand for 13 kg boxes. They waited in the cold for the first days of October when they harvested the red grapes, and then proceeded together to the cellar.
Winemaking	The grapes were simply destemmed and trampled on foot, they were left to macerate until fermentation started spontaneously and were then pressed into two used 225 liter barrels. The wine finished the alcoholic fermentation, made the malolactic one immediately and stayed there until May of the following year, when they made the batch and bottled 580 bottles.
Aging	6 months in used barrels.
Capacity	750ml
Volume	Alcohol by Volume: 12%
