TAPADA DO CHAVES RESERVA 2018 RED

The Tapada do Chaves Red Reserve is a faithful expression of the Portalegre terroir, where altitude and granite soils bring freshness and elegance to Alentejo wines. This reserva shows deep ruby color with garnet reflections, revealing maturity and complexity. The nose is seductive, with layers of ripe black fruits, compote cherry, pepper notes and a background of spices and subtle smoke. On the palate, it surprises with velvety texture, polished tannins and acidity that brings tension and extends the finish. Oak barrel ageing was managed with precision to respect varietal character. A wine that has evolved elegantly in bottle and presents itself at its optimal drinking moment, though still with ageing potential.
