Artesano By Helena Tinto

Description

This Artesano, hailing from the Alentejo and boasting an impressive 16.5 points, certainly lives up to the hype. The deep ruby colour immediately hints at the luscious, ripe black fruit dominating the nose, complemented by notes of dark chocolate and a subtle spice complexity – a clear indication of masterful winemaking. Firm tannins provide structure, but the elegance and complexity, thanks to the Trincadeira and Alicante Bouschet grapes, deliver a long, satisfying finish. It’s a fantastic match for a hearty, slow-cooked beef stew, wouldn’t you agree?
