Furtiva Lagrima Red

Discover Furtiva Lagrima Red, an exceptional wine from the Montargil region, Portalegre, in Alentejo. Influenced by the cool, humid microclimate created by the proximity to the Montargil dam and rooted in pebble soils, this wine reflects the rich river history of the area. Produced only in exceptional years, Furtiva Lagrima is a limited edition that highlights the best of the Alicante Bouschet grape variety and the Monte da Raposinha terroir.
Careful vinification begins with a rigorous thinning of bunches, ensuring limited production to maximize quality. Manual harvesting and meticulous selection in 15 kg boxes precede alcoholic fermentation in temperature-controlled stainless steel lagares, followed by a 23-month aging period in new French oak barrels. The final batch is a careful selection of the best barrels.
Furtiva Lagrima Tinto (or Fvrtiva Lagrima) offers a penetrating aroma of black fruit, with balsamic and spicy notes, complemented by a harmonious integration of barrel notes. In the mouth, it reveals itself to be voluminous and concentrated, with polished tannins and a persistent elegance, culminating in a delicate and long finish. Ideal to accompany meat, game, cheese and sausage dishes, this wine elevates any meal and it is recommended to decant it beforehand for a full experience.
