Lagoalva Barrel Selection Tinto 2019 (Red)

Region: Lisbon - Tejo

Year: 2019

13.5% Alcohol

Grape Varieties: Syrah, Touriga Nacional

Best served at 16ºC

Winemaking: The vinification of the different grape varieties is carried out separately and the lot is blended later. Grapes are mechanically harvested overnight. After 3 days of pre-fermenting maceration, the alcoholic fermentation takes place at 24ºC in stainless open vats. The musts are pressed hydraulically and the malolactic fermentation occurs in French oak barrels, where the wine ages during 12 months.

Tasting Notes: This wine has an intense garnet-red colour, with complex aromas of ripe black fruits, spices and vanilla. In the mouth it has a full volume, with elegant tannins and is long lasting. 

Food Pairing: Complementing meat and game, oven baked dishes and ripened cheeses.
