The reference for Dão wines ! Together with his daughter, Maria, Alvaro Castro - one of Portugal's most respected wineries - cultivates with great care and respect, beautiful indigenous grape varieties. which makes it possible to make elegant, fine and balanced wines. This delicious red wine has a light ruby colour. This is huge! We are on another dimension here. This creation from Alvaro de Castro is total purity. Intense red berries aromas, resin, cinnamon with hints of dark chocolate. On the palate, addictive acidity melted with soft, fine, amazing tannins. Eucalyptus with red fruit flavours, on the light/elegant side of the finesse. It finishes long with greatness!
