WINE MAKING PROCESS
The winemaking process for Porta 6 Lisboa begins with machine-harvested grapes that are destemmed and crushed. Fermentation occurs in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures (25-26°C). The wine is intentionally aged without oak contact to preserve its fruit-forward character. This approach emphasizes the natural qualities of the Tinta Roriz, Castelão, Touriga Nacional, and Aragonês grape blend from the Lisboa region.
