WINE MAKING PROCESS
The Duorum Colheita Douro 2020 is produced using grapes sourced from diverse vineyard parcels. Harvested by hand into small cases, the grapes undergo fermentation in stainless steel lagares, with some instances of robotized foot-treading. This is followed by controlled temperature fermentation and extended maceration. The wine is then aged for one year in oak barrels before bottling.
