Deep garnet red wine. In the nose it has aromas of fresh fruit, blackberries and cassis, which also dominate the taste. The soft tannins provide a balanced and pleasant structure throughout the taste and an excellent lengthening in the aftertaste

Food pairing

A wine that can accompany both traditional and modern cuisine. Delicious with strongly seasoned red meat dishes as well as the richer white meat dishes

Grapes: 40% Alicante Bouschet, 20% Alfrocheiro, 20% Aragonez, 20% Trincadeira

After the manual harvest, the grapes are destemmed and crushed. There follows a pre-fermentative maceration in a wine press for 24 hours and fermentation at a controlled temperature of 25°C to obtain a good extraction of color and tannins. Malolactic fermentation to stabilize and balance the wine.

Herdade dos Arrochais is a family estate located in Amareleja, in the middle of Alentejo.

After the acquisition in 1990, the family patriarch's passion and dedication to the land and hunting led him to invest all his personal and patrimonial resources in restoring the estate's soil, flora and fauna, as well as the exemplary recovery of agricultural land with a view to restoring its productive capacity and quality. The family is very close to nature. So the soil has been 'revived', the land has been reforested and wildlife has been cared for, some of which is reflected in the labels. Wine is grown here up to 1,500 meters above sea level.
