The hand-harvested grapes were vinified using the traditional Port Wine method. After gentle crushing with partial stemming, alcoholic fermentation follows with maceration, which allows the greatest possible extraction of the constituents of the skins to be obtained. Fermentation takes place under controlled temperature and is stopped by the addition of wine spirit at the moment considered ideal by the winemaker, considering the grape varieties, degree of maturation and desired sweetness. The final balance between the body and aroma of Port wine comes from the combination of the different characteristics of the multiple grape varieties used. The wine is in the Douro where the cold of winter helps deposit the lees. The following spring, after being cleaned, it is transported to the Ferreira cellars in V.N.Gaia and placed in oak barrels where it will age over several years, acquiring the incomparable style of the Ferreira brand. During aging, the wines are cared for and tasted by the oenology team who blend them until reach the final batch with Ferreira's characteristics and style. The final batch has an average age of around 3 years old.
