Though most of the estate’s land is planted to cork oak—yes, real cork comes from trees!—they also have superb plantings of Castelão, which in this case are harvested early to preserve freshness in favor of ripeness or alcoholic content. Medium-bodied, bright, & red fruited—very versatile! Food Pairing Grilled chicken thighs, pork dishes

A ripe while also light wine, this has fine acidity along with its red berry fruits and smoky aftertaste. The texture is soft, emphasizing fruits. The wine is ready to drink.
