Elegant delicate red wine with moderately intense cherry colour and rather thick tears. Strikingly ripe nose with black fruit and fleshy plums, white pepper and shrubbery, and an earthy undertone. Playful texture balanced and fleshy harmonious, juicy tannins, light ending in the fruity aftertaste. Lovely to enjoy on its own, freshly served at cocktail parties and receptions with cold meats, raw ham varieties, red fruit vegetables and white mould cheeses, as well as the classic spaghetti bolognaise. Serving temperature: 14°C.
Great Wines, a Worthy Cause
This is a story about people, namely a man whose legacy we still treasure today.
Vasco Maria Eugénio de Almeida was born in Lisbon in 1913, the son of one of the most affluent families of 19th century Portugal but soon established strong ties with Évora and the Alentejo where, thanks to the legacy of his paternal grandfather, the family owned a considerable patrimony in land and real estate.
