Winemaker's Notes

A red juice grape variety of French origin. Introduced in Alentejo in the 19th century. Produces concentrated, full-bodied wines with good ageing potential.

This wine is the result of the expression of the Alicante Bouschet grape variety from three different origins in a very good vintage year for this grape. It combines the intensity, texture, and concentration of the Reguengos de Monsaraz sub-region with the vitality of the altitude of Portalegre.
Hand-picked. Vinified in small concrete tanks

One year in 5000 liters (30% of the batch), and 500 liters (70% of the batch) French oak barrels. Followed by a minimum of two years in the bottle. 

Color: Deep, concentrated color.

Aroma: Complex varietal aroma with black plum, dark chocolate, and slight leather notes.

Palate: The classic tannic structure is complemented by intense fruit and a long, spicy finish.
