Porto Ferreira Dona Antónia Reserva Tawny is vinified using the traditional Porto Wine method. Hand-picked grapes are softly crushed and, after partial stalk-removal, fermented with maceration allowing the best components of the grape skins to be extracted. The whole process takes place under strict control of both temperature and wine density, making it possible for the winemaker to choose the ideal moment for the addition of wine alcohol, fundamental to halt fermentation and keep the natural sweetness of Porto wine. That moment depends on vine varieties, stage of maturation and final sweetness levels required. The wines selected for the final blend of this reserve Porto wine stay in the Douro after the harvest and are taken to the company´s traditional Porto Wine lodges in Villa Nova de Gaia the following Spring where they mature in oak casks. For several years the wines undergo numerous transfers, analyses and tastings that monitor the ageing of the wine, preparation of the blends, as well as refreshing and eventual adjustment when tasting so determines. The final blend is composed with wines from different ages and origins to achieve a consistency of style and quality typical of Porto Ferreira Dona Antónia Reserva Tawny. The selected wines usually vary between 4 and 12 years of age, achieving an average age of about 7 years.
