Summary
In the heart of Vidigueira, in the southern foothills of Serra do Mendro, in poor schist soils, the bush vines that make this wine are planted in a hot climate, buffered with cool nights. The traditional grape varieties, mainly Trincadeira and Castelão, were hand-picked and foot trodden for 2 days. At the initialization of the spontaneous fermentation, they were pressed and the must kept in uncoated 19th century clay pots (Talhas) until the end of the alcoholic fermentation. The 12-month aging was made in centenary barrels made of Portuguese oak and chestnut.
Natus Vini Tinto is a red from Vidigueira, Portugal, blended from Castelao and Trincadeira.
