Quinta Das Marias Alfrocheiro Tinto

Description

“From Quinta das Marias, this Alfrocheiro is delightfully defiant – clearly not wanting to be tamed! Hand-picked using 20kg crates and a touch of foot-treading, it’s a wine utterly rooted in the Dão terroir, boasting a wonderfully earthy character and a vibrant acidity. The result is a remarkably elegant and aromatic wine, with hints of cherry and raspberry reminiscent of Burgundy – though, as the Maria family insist, it's crucial that this wine retains its distinctive personality. Perfect paired with a hearty black pork dish to beautifully balance its intensity.”
