2020 Dona Berta, Reserva Tinto Cao, Douro, Portugal
$34.99
Tinto Cão 100%. The year 2020 was very good in the Douro region, ensuring penning of the
grapes, resulting in the production of an enormously appealing wine.
After crushing the grapes with the stems and disinfection with a small dose of sulphur dioxide,the yeasts selected were inoculated. Fermentation was carried out in small stainless steel vat at a temperature of between 28 º and 30 º C, with regular use of the pump aeration process. After malolactic fermentation the wine was left in wood barrels for a year. Bottling was conducted around a year after harvesting and the wine was subjected to a slight clarification and then filtered. The wine was not stabilized using artificial cold enabling it to form a slight precipitation over time, which had no effect whatsoever on the quality of the wine.
