2020 Syrah, Case of 6

Produced in Portalegre to the north east of the Alentejo on the granite foothills of the São Mamede mountains. The combination of cool, high altitude grapes and granite soils combine to give wines of great finesse with structure, intense aromas and freshness.

"This is another wine with a sensational label (see the website for 
information on Howard’s work with his Sovereign Art 
Foundation). If you are looking for a Portuguese version of Graillot
Crozes-Hermitage, look no further. With a black cherry as opposed 
to a blackberry core and a white pepper dusting as opposed to 
black, this is Portalegre’s translation of a wonderful, spicy, mediumweight wine. It is mouth-wateringly attractive even though it is a 
puppy, yet I feel it has even more to give over the coming years." Matthew Jukes
