Casa Américo Alfrocheiro Tinto

Description

“Don’t let the delicate appearance of this Casa Américo Alfrocheiro fool you – it’s a seriously robust wine, showcasing the casta traditionally held back for the Dão region. Expect a powerful punch of dark berry fruit, with notes of black cherries, and a subtle pine resin hint, as if freshly picked from the forest. The extended ageing – 24 months in stainless steel tanks followed by 12 months in cool cave – has resulted in a remarkably smooth texture, considering the intensity it delivers. A complex and lingering finish, this wine pairs beautifully with a perfectly grilled steak.”
