Tasting Notes
Not at all heavy yet brimming with pure, unadulterated fruit: deliciously ripe English cherries, blackcurrant compote, violets, and on the palate it feels like liquid silk. The warmth of the Alentejo region lends a beguiling generosity that just oozes appeal, it's an absolute joy and so moreish you'll be reaching for a second glass in no time.

There can be few more bold and enterprising wine industry personalities in the world than Antonio Maçanita. This former international gymnast and rugby player is now making groundbreaking wines across Portugal, from the Douro, to Alentejo to the Azores. If you've watched the recent third series of The Wine Show (available on Amazon Prime), you'll have caught Antonio talking of his winemaking projects on the wild and windswept Azores. For us, his wines from his homeland, the Alentejo, are the very best of them all.
