In the middle of the southern plain of Alentejo, this wine was produced with Aragonês, Trincadeira, Alicante Bouschet, and Touriga Nacional. In the tasting, garnet color, intense aroma, with notes of black cherry and wild aromas. Balanced, smooth palate and good persistence. Contains sulfites.

Notes of vermilion fruits combined with toasted nuances and baked berries are integrated on a firm and elegant structure. Complex and long, with aging potential. Count me sulfites.

In 2015 we enjoyed long and slow maturations that our older strains and our best plots have taken advantage of to provide grapes with an exemplary balance between acidity and tannins. The two grape varieties that benefited most with the exceptional goodness of nature were Syrah and Alicante Bouschet, providing grapes in perfect maturity. With raw material so good we prefer to work them little, letting the grapes speak for themselves. That's why we did little more than one walk on our wineries, according to the most traditional methods of the region, followed by a stage in new barrels and barrels of second year of French oak, letting the wine express itself in the purest form . Very fleshy red color. Tense and closed, concentrated and powerful, floral and fruity, it ends with some earthy notes that add complexity. Silky and velvety in texture, it is an intense and structured red, vigorous but not aggressive, complex and elegant, fresh finish and great guarding potential. Contains Sulfites.
