Food-pairing
should not be decanted. Can also be drunk on its own, but is also a good companion with cheese or semi-sweet desserts. Excellent with fruit salads, chocolate, foie-gras petit fours and coffee.
Grapes : 100% Boal
Grapes from various quality vineyards located in Arco da Calheta and Prazeres. Grapes were pressed in a pneumatic press. Arresting of fermentation takes place at the desired degree of sweetness by adding vinic alcohol (96%). Boal aged in French oak casks for 5 years by the Canteiro method. For this blend we selected from our warehouses wines with stable temperatures year round, that originate a very well balanced wine in sugar and acidity.
