VINEYARDS AND VINIFICATION
Grapes from Arco de S. Jorge. Mechanical pressing. Fermentation is stopped with the addition of vinic alcohol (96%).
LOT
To create this Lot 6072, limited to 1290 numbered bottles, we selected from our warehouses some of our best Malvasia wines, strongly influenced by our family tradition.
Blending some youthful wines with much older ones, all aged in our old french oak casks, resulted in the unique Barbeito style: a very long fresh acidity after taste. Now that almost 2 years have passed since we created our last Malvasia 20 year old blend (Lot 4122), we hope this new lot will meet the expectations of those that have kindly awaited until today.
