“Alicante Bouschet, Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca, Castelão from Alenquer. Destemmed, spontaneous fermentation in stainless-steel tanks. Aged 10 months in clay amphorae. Just 90 bottles produced.
Black core. Sweet spice of Alicante Bouschet. Highly aromatic. Super-tannic, dark and savoury. Charry but has remarkably fresh fruit. Freshness also from the tannins, it seems. The fruit came back in the amphora, apparently. Long and deep. 14.5% Drink 2023 – 2030.”
