To fully enjoy what's behind this velvety-smooth Gold-medal Portuguese Black Red, let’s go back in time! To the 1st century AD and vineyards planted to serve the ruling elite at the thriving Roman port of Troia. Here, on Portugal’s windswept Atlantic coast, the only grape that thrives in the dry, sandy soils and super-hot sun is local star Castelão. This small, dark-skinned grape boasts fathomless depths of flavour – if you know how to unlock it.
Back to today and enter Gold-medal winemaking maestro Jaime Quendera. He makes this Black Red at Portugal’s most awarded winery, Casa Ermelinda Freitas, but only in the best years, and it flies of our shelves when it's in stock. If you see it, buy it!
Rippling with ripe plums, black fruits and laced with chocolate, with a spicy oak finish.
