WINE MAKING PROCESS
The P.Lex Reserva Sexto Sentido is crafted from a blend of Trincadeira, Aragonêz, and Alicante Bouschet grapes, all indigenous to Portugal. Following harvest, the grapes undergo fermentation, with the specific details of this process not being explicitly stated. The wine is then aged for six months in French oak barrels, a technique that contributes to its complexity and structure. The 2022 vintage was characterized by favorable weather conditions that promoted grape ripeness and concentration.
