Pequeno Pintor Tinto

2021 Alentejano Tempranillo, Alicante Bouschet

Pequeno Pintor Tinto is a delightful expression of the Alentejano region, showcasing a vibrant red hue that invites you to explore its rich character. Crafted from a blend of Tempranillo and Alicante Bouschet, this wine presents a medium body that balances its fruit-forward essence with an enjoyable mouthfeel. The acidity is bright and refreshing, contributing to its overall liveliness, while the integration of tannins is smooth, allowing for an approachable sipping experience. With fruit intensity that is prominent, notes of ripe cherries and blackberries burst forth, complemented by subtle hints of spice and earthiness. This wine is also beautifully dry, making it a versatile choice that pairs wonderfully with a variety of cuisines, enhancing any dining occasion.

Best known for its port dessert wine, Portugal is also home to some seriously worthwhile—though frequently overlooked—red and white table wines. This small country on the Iberian Peninsula has a wide range of climates, allowing it to produce everything from light and crisp whites in the Atlantic-cooled northwest to ripe and juicy reds in the hot and hilly Douro Valley. What often sets apart Portuguese wines is that they are often made from local grapes rather than more familiar international varieties. Difficult to pronounce (but a joy to drink!), common varietals include Touriga Nacional, Tinta Cão, and Loureiro.
