Quinta De Alqueve São João Tinto

Description

This São João da Pinhal from Torre, expertly crafted by Russell Burns, certainly bucks the trend for the Tejo region. It’s a surprisingly zesty wine, bursting with vibrancy that’s begging for a perfectly grilled steak – a match made in heaven, really. The Mourão grapes, deeply rooted in this area, contribute a lovely fruit-forward character, balancing the wine’s medium body. And, as a silver medalist at the Decanter World Wine Awards, it’s a reminder that the Tejo region still holds a few delightful surprises.
