Clear, grenade color, it appears with an aromatic intense profile on the nose suggesting mature fruits, with slight wooden notes and suggestion of spices.
It appears full-bodied and well balanced on the palate, with robust tannins and well combined acidity, closing with a long and elegant finale.
We invite you for a toast with this red wine, accompanied with roasted kid or typical Alentejano lamb or grilled well spiced fat meats.
