- Terroir: Douro Valley: The grapes are sourced from vineyards in the Douro Valley, which is known for its steep, terraced vineyards and schist soils. The regions unique terroir, with its hot summers and cool nights, contributes to the concentration and complexity of the wines.
- Vinification: Hand-picked and fermented In lagares, with foot-treading. Shortly after the harvest the wines were transferred to wooden casks (“tonéis”) and spent the winter maturing in the Douro Valley. In April 2016 they were brought to Vila Nova de Gaia.
