Pequeno João
Red WineThe new edition of Pequeno João is once again a 100% Cabernet Sauvignon, still very young on the aroma, of a pure red colour that reveals for now a very complex bouquet of ripe blue and blackberries, hints of spices and great hood. On the mouth it’s a little diamond still to perfect, with vigorous but tamed tanins, keeping The fruity but serious profile, finishes quite long.
Vinification
Grapes were hand picked into 12 Kg boxes and selected at the sorting table. Fermentation occurred in stainless steel lagares with temperature control and traditional maceration. Aged for 12 months in new French oak barrels.
