Combining Syrah, Petit Verdot and the colourful Alicante Bouschet to the very local Touriga Nacional, this cuvée from the magnificent Alentejo region, located south of Lisbon, is a sure charmer. In addition to its lovely medley of flavours like ripe black fruits, pepper and violet, we love its thirst-quenching attack, which balances the structure.

(Automatically translated) A fine example of blending typical Portuguese grape varieties with international grape varieties. On the nose, ripe fruit and spices dominate and in the mouth, it presents a beautiful structure and roundness on aromas of plum, blackberry and a sustained finish on a note of mocha! Perfect for grilling and game.
