An intense violet-ruby, this has an attractive, perfumed nose, cassis and blackberry and spice, lifted by floral notes. The palate, equally aromatic, is supported by soft tannins and good acidity (maritime climate) finishing long. Good with food whether Summer barbecues or Sunday roasts
"Paulo and Alice Tavares da Silva bought this historic Quinta in the Eighties and immediately set about investing in the property. This is a lovely property, 45 hectares in size, in Alenquer region, northeast of Lisbon – beautifully sited. Here traditionalism blends with modernity, producing wines with a lightness of touch and refreshing aromatics."
