Vinification

Fermented and fully matured in stainless steel tanks. This Encruzado is created from a blend of vineyards from Póvoa das Quartas and Girabolhos, harvested on consecutive days. Fermentation took place at a controlled temperature (18–20 °C) in an inert container. Malolactic fermentation was deliberately prevented. The wine continues to mature in stainless steel tanks, with the fine lees being regularly stirred during the first two months. Subsequently, further maturation took place for 7 to 9 months on the resting fine lees – always in the stainless steel tank.

Oenologist
Tiago Macena

Código Wine kommt aus der Subregion Serra da Estrela im Dão – einer der ältesten und eigenständigsten Weinregionen Portugals. Hinter dem Projekt steht Önologe Tiago Macena, der die autochthonen Rebsorten des Dão neu interpretiert: Encruzado, Bical, Uva Cão, Touriga Nacional – jede Flasche ein eigenständiger Ausdruck der Gegend, vinifiziert mit Eichenholzfässern und traditionellen Tonamphoren.

Der Name ist Programm: Código – Geheimcode. Macena entschlüsselt, was die Reben und das Terroir der Serra da Estrela zu sagen haben. Das Ergebnis sind Weine mit Charakter und Tiefe, fern von internationalen Einheitsgeschmäckern.
