Monte da Ravasqueira Heritage Alicante Bouschet Tinto

Winemaking: The grapes underwent rigorous selection on a sorting table, followed by two days of cold maceration. Fermentation lasted about 10 days. The wine was then aged for 28 months in new French oak barrels and refined in bottle for a further 12 months before release.

The colour is very deep and intense, typical of the variety. On the nose, it stands out for its intensity and maturity, with good aromatic concentration, where fresh herbal notes come forward, recalling herbs and delicate hints of pine. On the palate, it shows body and structure, with present but well-integrated tannins, ensuring balance and elegance. The oak ageing is well defined, adding complexity and depth to the whole. The finish is long and persistent, with a freshness that supports its potential for further bottle ageing.

It pairs well with red meats, game, and cured cheeses. Serve at 16 °C. ABV 15%. Available in a 0.75 L bottle.

To get the most from this red, open the bottle a few minutes before serving and pour it into a wide-bowled glass, which allows the aromas to breathe. For younger, more concentrated wines, a brief decanting helps soften the tannins. Store the bottle on its side, in a cool, dark place free from temperature fluctuations. Once opened, reseal the bottle and keep it in the refrigerator to preserve the aromas.
