Grape-picking is done by hand, caste by caste, when the ideal point of ripeness is reached, normally between the second fortnight of September and the first fortnight of October. Fermentation at a controlled temperature in order to preserve all their aromatic elegance, in big wooden barrels and stainless steel tanks, for 20 days. Malolactic fermentation in barrels of French oak and has a maturing period of 18 months in order to potentiate its structure and complexity. Winemaker is Hugo Chaves. Hugo was born in Viseu in 1972 and studied Oenology at the Trás-os-Montes e Alto Douro University. Since 1997 he participated in the foundation of the Quinta de Lemos with great dedication. With his warm personality and creative mind he is a great oenologist with a preference for intense, full-bodied and palatable wines.
