The Quinta de S. José Grande Reserva Tinto Magnum was created from the oldest vines of the Quinta and flows into the glass in a deep purple red colour. This wine is complex and distinctive, with a fruity and floral character and discreetly integrated notes of spices and mint. On the palate it is complex and well structured with perfect tannins and an excellent balance between power and elegance. It ends in a long and satisfying finish.

After harvesting by hand, the grapes were transported to the cellar in 25 kg crates and kept cool at 5° to 6° before being destemmed and crushed by foot in the traditional way in Lagares. After the malolactic fermentation, the wine matured in new and used 400-litre oak barrels for 16 months.
