About This Wine
Ĝenerala Paixão
Vinho Tinto
From a small country comes incredible wines, which is evident in our Platinum Medal-winning brand, Ĝenerala Paixão. In the recent 2021 Winemaker Challenge International Wine Competition, wine critic and writer Rich Cook had this to say: “Here’s a ridiculously delicious blend of Castelão and Aragonez that pleases with rich black fruit, white pepper, and sexy vanilla accents on the nose and in the mouth. It finishes fully integrated and long. It’s an absolute steal for the price. More of this, please!” As he points out, Portugal is a reliable place to find delicious wines at tremendous value. And while Portugal’s wine-producing reputation may be small compared to its neighbors France and Spain, some of the most beautiful wines in Europe come from this region’s unique terroir. We invite you to pop the cork and see for yourself! Scroll through the image carousel above to learn more about this wine.
