Casa Relvas Syrah 2022 Red, Vinha do Ribeiro
Ruby red color with violet highlights. A highly aromatic nose of red fruit, orange peel, and toasted notes. Round, rich, and full-bodied on the palate. Balanced acidity and fine tannins. A long, complex finish. This Syrah combines Casa Relvas's quality with excellent value. It appeals to both the everyday wine lover and the more experienced drinker—a versatile wine for any occasion.
Casa Relvas is a family project, started in 1997 in São Miguel de Machede, in Redondo, by Alexandre Relvas, which aims to continue the history of five generations with a strong passion for the Alentejo and its genuine nature.
