Picos do Couto Sparkling Rosé

Vinification: This sparkling wine was made exclusively from Touriga Nacional grapes, grown at Quinta Picos do Couto. All grapes were hand-picked and harvested at the ideal ripening time for this style of wine. After a delicate pressing, the must was decanted and in turn delicately fermented at a controlled temperature of 15ºC. The wine obtained proved to be very fresh and aromatic, with a lively acidity. The second fermentation followed by the traditional method in bottle, where the wine aged for 9 months until its degorgement.
