Tamarez was for many years a very important varietal in Alentejo, Antonio is bringing it back. 12 months lees, this wine pairs a textual richness with freshness. Fresh yet broad in terms of fruit, which goes from citrus to tropical, with vibrant lemon and ripe pineapple. Very fine, persistent and clean. So interesting and so delicious. Drinking so well now.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e#Tasting#\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWinemaker of the Year' 2018, 'Singularity Award' 2018, 'Revelation Producer' 2017, Wine Project of the Year 2016 - it's safe to say that Antonio Macanita's mantlepiece is under some strain. But despite the high achievements and fancy awards, there's a devil-may-care adventurousness to António Maçanita which really puts us in mind of the likes of Pieter Walser or Swartland revolutionaries Adi Badenhorst and Eben Sadie in South Africa (funnily enough, Alentejo, where Antonio makes his Fitapreta wines, has been compared to Swartland - \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ein that it was traditionally dominated by co-operatives but recently we’ve seen an influx of small growers with old plots making really interesting and exciting wines).\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Like the Saffers, Antonio has sought to challenge wine lovers' expectations and make great new wines from often largely forgotten territories. He also surfs. He learned his trade at some of the world's top wineries - Rudd in Napa, D’Arenberg in Australia and Lynch-Bages in Bordeaux - before blazing a trail all over Portugal - from Douro to Alentejo to the Azores Islands. In addition to his own multi-region company, he also consults for 13 other wineries.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"FITAPRETA VINHOS","offers":[{"title":"DUTY PAID","offer_id":43286739615929,"sku":"PFIT09W7521","price":29.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2466\/1541\/files\/fita-preta-chao-dos-eremitas-os-paulistas-white-2022.jpg?v=1775752425"}],"url":"https:\/\/swig.co.uk\/collections\/grape-tamarez\/region-alentejo.oembed","provider":"Swig Wines","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
