Fitapreta Red 2022
€ 14.25
This characterful blend of aragonez, alicante bouschet, trincadeira, and castelão comes from the rocky schistous and granite vineyards of Alentejo and vines planted 1979-1989 at 300-400m. Layered with boysenberry, wild blueberry, and sultry plum, this fuller, stony red is hugged by lightly sticky tannins, finishing with a dusting of baking spice and a kiss of anise.
