Adega De Borba Senses Petit Verdot Tinto

Description

This Petit Verdot from Adega de Borba isn't just a wine – it’s a mini-adventure to the Alentejo woodlands. The deep ruby colour hints at the wild blackberries found there, with a deliciously intense spice. Remarkably refreshing on the palate, it boasts a persistence that suggests the grape’s rich tannins, beautifully balanced by notes of dark chocolate and a surprising minty finish. Rumour has it it scored 85 points – a solid endorsement, particularly when paired with something decadent like *estranhon* cheese or a rich, dark pork dish, known as *silbo preto*.
