Quinta do Vale Meão Vintage Port 2019 | Ewineasia.com

Resulting from a rigorous selection of the best Port wines from a single year, it is made from more than 10 grape varieties, with Touriga Franca being the dominant one. The classical vinification method is applied using our century old granite lagares, with mixed grape varieties and keeping 100% of the stems. After crushing, the must is cooled down. In the same evening of the day of the picking footreading is made in the lagares, for the duration of four hours. Fermentation begins spontaneously and the mechanical crushing is done regularly up until the pressing and addition of selected grape spirit. The wine is aged in large wooden vats and bottled 22 months after the harvest.
