Herdade Dos Grous Moon Harvested Tinto

Description

Born under the influence of the moon – yes, we know it sounds a *little* dramatic – this wine is undeniably packed with the characteristic punch of Alicante Bouschet. Apparently, harvesting is timed with the tides, a detail that suggests some serious celestial calculations. The oak aging, combined with that intense maceration on the lagares, delivers a robust wine bursting with black fruit notes and a hint of spice. It’s certainly ambitious enough to stand up to a good steak, or perhaps even a particularly well-loved regional cheese. Let’s just hope it’s worth the lunar obsession.
