Cartuxa, Evora Tinto Colheita 2013, Alentejo, Portugal

Tasting Note: A concentrated, red blend from Portugal that pleases and abounds with depth and structure.

Deep-intensity ruby in color, this wine has an aromatic nose of blackberry, black plum, black currant and violet.

On the palate the dry, full-bodied red blend expresses black-fruit flavors suggested on the nose supported by ripe, velvety, high tannin.

The wine is concentrated with a medium-plus finish.

There is mid-palate complexity and balance between the fruit and tannin.

Bottle Note: Aragonez (50%), Alicante Bouschet (20%), Trincadeira (20%), Cabernet Sauvignon (10%)
