Made from ancient grape varieties from very old vineyards located on the outskirts of the village of Reguengo, in the Serra de S. Mamede (the only mountain with more than 1000 meters of altitude south of the Tagus). We can indicate some varietal dominance: Alicante Bouschet, Trincadeira, Aragonez, Castelão. These vineyards were planted in the early years of the 20th century. The altitude varies between 500 and 720 meters. The soil is very old and eroded granite (Ordovician). Yields per strain are very low.
Destemmed and crushed grapes. Wine fermented with indigenous yeasts in a small 2,000 liter vat. Aged for 23 months in old French oak barrels.
