Inky and dark, this aromatic, full-flavoured wine simply bursts with ripe blueberry and plum. Grapes are grown on clay and schist vineyards in Alentejo, southern Portugal, and mechanical harvested during night. There is an intriguing undercurrent of smoke and wonderfully peppery spice with an explosion of crunchy, fresh red fruit. Juicy, a total pleasure to drink.
