Prior Lucas Habemus R Tinto

Description

This Prior Lucas Habemus is a wonderfully intriguing wine, boasting a vibrant ruby hue that hints at what’s to come. Initially, you’re greeted with notes of fresh red berries, but quickly the characteristic damp earth and chalky minerality of the Bairrada region steps forward – it’s as if the vineyard itself is sharing its story. The remarkably smooth tannins provide a silky texture on the palate, while the persistent acidity ensures a perfectly balanced finish, ideally paired with a good grilled beef. A gold medal from “Vinho & Spetáculo” certainly validates this expression of the old Vinhas Velhas vines.
