There are only a handful of sweet wines in Ribeiro, the old "tostado" (toasted) produced with grapes that are picked early and left to dehydrate for months in the old winery. The result is a mahogany sweet wine like this 2008 Alma de Reboreda that was produced with Treixadura grapes that had lost 70% of their volume and were very concentrated. It fermented in 225-liter French oak barrels for around 10 months. After it finished fermenting, the wine was transferred to a different barrique, where it matured for no less than five years. It smells of raisin liqueur, with a roasted note, quite sweet but not terribly complex. It has 170 grams of sugar, 14% alcohol and unusually low acidity. A rarity. There were 1,111 375-milliliter bottles produced. It was bottled in September 2019.
