Quinta Do Carmo Red Wine

2002 Alentejano Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah

Quinta Do Carmo Red Wine, a fantastic expression of the Alentejano region, beautifully showcases a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah grapes. This alluring red wine captivates with its deep ruby hue, promising an experience filled with rich flavors. On the palate, it presents a full-bodied profile, harmonizing well with its high acidity and notable tannins that create a structured mouthfeel. The fruit intensity shines brightly, offering pronounced notes of dark berries intertwined with hints of spice and earthiness, reflecting the unique terroir of Alentejano. With its dry finish, this wine is an excellent choice for pairing with hearty dishes, making it a wonderfully versatile addition to any cellar.

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.
