Herdade Das Servas Branco

Description

Herdade das Servas **Viticulture:** Vineyards planted on red soils derived from pale or crystalline limestones, with slate patches, benefiting from a Mediterranean climate with high thermal amplitude and hot, dry summers. After necessary green interventions during the vegetative cycle, the grapes were hand‑picked and transported to the cellar in crates. **Vinification:** Grapes are selected, destemmed, and undergo pre‑fermentative maceration. Fermentation occurs in a must vat and stainless‑steel tank with temperature control. **Maturation:** The wine is fermented in French oak barrels and partially aged for 12 months in clay amphorae. After bottling, it rests in bottles in our cellar. To preserve all its qualities, it was not stabilised, allowing natural sediment formation. **Longevity:** Up to 20 years if stored in a cool, dark place with the bottle lying on its side. **Pairings:** Complements roasted oven fish, bivalves à bulhão pato, cheeses, and cured meats. Decanting is recommended. **Enology:** Luís Serrano Mira and Ricardo Constantino. **Viticulture:** Carlos Serrano Mira and Ricardo Constantino.
