GRAPE GROWING AND WINEMAKING<\/strong>
\nVines are planted in Douro\u2019s traditional terraces (socalcos and patamares). Vines are planted in Douro\u00b4s traditional terraces (socalcos and patamares). The hand-harvested grapes come from old vines located in the subregions of Cima Corgo and Douro Superior. All the grapes of Xisto \u2013 Roquette & Cazes 2004 are destemed and crushed. Fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled stainless steel conic vats. Several delestages are applied during the long maceration period. Delestage is a French extraction technique which means that the juice is drained from the fermenting vat leaving the cap behind. The fermenting juice is then pumped back over the cap, maximising the skin contact. This is a very extractive technique but, at the same time, it maintains the elegance of the wine.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

WINEMAKERS<\/strong>
\nDaniel Llose (Ch\u00e2teau Lynch-Bages) and Susana Esteban (Quinta do Crasto).<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

TASTING NOTES<\/strong>
\nColour:<\/strong> dark ruby.
\nNose:<\/strong> good harmony between elegant floral notes and very intense red fruit aromas. Great freshness.
\nPalate:<\/strong> very refine attack, right volume with deep and very silky tannins. Elegant finish with very good complexity between red fresh fruit and slight notes of dark chocolate. Excellent deepness with good ageing potential.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

SERVING SUGGESTIONS<\/strong>
