Waar serveer je ’m bij?
One grape, Alfrocheiro, and thirty days on the skins — far longer than usual, with forty per cent of the bunches going in whole and uncrushed. That combination gives aroma and length without driving up the tannin: a long maceration refines the structure rather than hardening it. Fifteen months in three-thousand-litre foudres, too large for the wood to show.

Minder geschikt bij
Heavily spiced or chilli-hot dishes: capsaicin makes the alcohol burn and the fine Alfrocheiro aroma disappears behind it.
