Winemaking
Hand-harvested at the right moment, destemmed and crushed, then macerated with continuous pumping over to draw out colour, tannin and aroma. Fermented in stainless steel at 28 to 30 C until the desired Baumé, when grape brandy is added to fortify it. Blended from wines of different ages and sources, with a minimum of seven years in wood. Winemaker Pedro Sá.
About Barros
Barros has been shipping Port since 1913, when Manoel de Barros joined the house that would take his name. It is now part of Sogevinus, whose cellars in Vila Nova de Gaia hold one of the largest stocks of old Tawny in the Douro.
