Luis Seabra Mono C 2017 Tinto

€ 30.49

Made from Portugal's second most widely planted varietal Castelão, this is an easily approachable, juicy wine, bursting with lots of red fruits. The palate is round, with soft tannins and crisp, mouthwatering acidity. A wine for those who love Barbera, Cabernet Franc and Tempranillo (full-bodied). Top !

With the Mono C, he is taking a look at a particular variety – in this case, Castelão. While Castelão is a grape that is typically found further south in Portugal, Luis has found a mono-planted plot of the light-skinned grape in the Douro and is working his magic to craft a wine of unparalleled delicacy and elegance
