2022 Casa Relvas Segredos de São Miguel Reserva
Made from a blend of at least 4 native grapes from the Alentejo region of Portugal.
The wine is aged for 9 months in large wood casks. The result is a juicy wine with black fruit character. Typical of the Alentejo region.
This wine, from the heart of the São Miguel estate, has black chocolate and licorice aromas. Its firm tannins promise aging, giving a wine with dense black and red currant fruits and a core of dryness.

2022 Quinta do Crasto Crasto Douro Tinto
Made from a blend of Touriga Nacional, Tinta Roriz, Touriga Franca and Tinta Barroca from over 20 year old vines.
15% of he wine is aged for 6 months in large wood casks. The result is a juicy wine with black fruit character.
Deep ruby in colour. The nose reveals expressive aromas of red fruit and subtle floral hints. The palate starts in an charming way, evolving into a remarkably ample wine and it´s upheld by a solid, balanced structure. Tannins are finely integrated, and their velvety texture gives the wine an engaging elegance. The finish is fresh, precise and persistent

2022 Umani Ronchi 'San Lorenzo' Rosso Conero
San Lorenzo takes its name from the vineyard of the same name in the municipality of Osimo from which it originates.
About 50% of the wine is aged in 5000‐8000 litre oak casks, and the rest in barriques on their third or fourth time of use, for a period of about 12 months. San Lorenzo rests in bottle for a further 6 months. Great with pork or braised meats. One of THE best values in our portfolio.
2024 Bodegas Esmeralda Estiba Malbec
Founded more than half a century ago by Don Juan Fernández, the winery is named after his daughter, the only woman among four brothers, Esmeralda Fernández.
The wine is aged in American oak for a period of one year. The result is a Malbec that has the traditional red and black fruit flavours with a hint of spice & vanilla.
A really well balanced style that doesn't overpower the palate.
