Lifted aromas of black fruits, a rich, spicy palate with juicy ripe fruit, supple tannins and fresh finish.
One of Portugal's largest and most progressive producers with 600 hectares spread across estates in five regions from Douro in the north to Alentejo in the south. A range of mid-priced wines from native varieties, full of character, quite distinctly Portuguese, but at the same time approachable and with fresh, modern fruit.

Ratings & Awards,
The Vineyard
A combination of hand and machine-picked grapes are sourced from
Alianca's own vineyards in the Alentejo region in the south-east, not
far from the Spanish border. Here low yielding, old vines are tended
traditionally from plantings on clay soils. Fermentation takes place in
stainless steel vats controlled at 30 degrees for 6 days with extended
maceration on the skins to extract sufficient colour, fruit and tannins.
The wine is matured in tank for a few months before bottling.
