Red | Alentejo | 2021 | 12%
Bright mid crimson. Very, very scented, pure cherry. Beautifully fragrant with both sour cherry and sweet red fruits, plus a light, leafy freshness. Extremely fine tannins – elegant and chalky. So much drinking pleasure. Peppery and scented. Long, too. (Julia Harding, 17 points, JancisRobinson.com)
