WINE MAKING PROCESS
CARM 2022 is produced using a blend of Touriga Nacional, Tinta Roriz, and Touriga Franca. The grapes are likely fermented in stainless steel tanks, with malolactic fermentation contributing to the wine's texture. Following fermentation, the wine undergoes an eight-month aging period in French and American oak barrels. The producer adheres to organic farming practices and emphasizes the use of indigenous grape varietals native to the Douro region.
