Herdade Do Freixo Family Collection Tinto

Description

This wine from Herdade do Freixo certainly feels like it’s sprung from a lovely Alentejo fairytale – or perhaps a very meticulously run cellar. The initial hints of ripe fruit and a touch of mint suggest a deeply concentrated flavour profile that deserves to be savoured slowly, without rushing. With 300 hectares of land and a terroir boasting “elevated viticultural potential,” the producer delivers a wine with a wonderfully balanced structure of tannins and acidity, promising a longevity that would pair beautifully with a good, slow-cooked beef.
