LOT

This Colheita 2001, Single Cask 719, began aging at the Afonso (d) warehouse and since 2008 has been aging in the warehouse at the new winery (e). We were able to buy grapes with the ideal maturation according to Barbeito wine making philosophy in which the initial acidity plays a very important role in the development of the wine along its aging process by the Canteiro method. This Malvasia is very elegant and has the usual acidity that we value so much in our wines. In April 2015, 1137 bottles have been filled, all individually numbered.
