2005 Alentejano Red Blend

The Medeiros Reserva from the Alentejano region showcases a captivating red hue that hints at its rich complexity. This exquisite red blend, crafted in the acclaimed vintage of 2005, is characterized by a full-body, delivering a well-rounded mouthfeel that envelops the palate. The acidity is bright and lively, providing a refreshing backbone to the wine, while the fruit intensity stands out with prominent notes of dark berries, blackcurrant, and subtle hints of spice. The tannins are firm yet finely integrated, offering a structured finish that enhances the wine’s overall elegance. The wine is beautifully dry, making it versatile enough to pair with a variety of dishes, from hearty meat dishes to aged cheeses. This is a delightful expression of the Alentejano terroir, demonstrating both craftsmanship and tradition in every sip.

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.
