Azamor Petit Verdot Alentejano Vinho Regional, Portugal, is a vibrant Red (still) dry wine crafted entirely from Petit Verdot grapes. This deeply coloured wine offers delicate black fruit aromas, beautifully complemented by subtle smoky notes from 12 months of ageing in French oak, 35% of which is new. On the palate, it reveals intense black fruit flavours, an elegant structure, and velvety tannins leading to an excellent, long finish. This vegan and vegetarian-friendly wine is a superb accompaniment to rich red meats or mature hard cheeses.

Vinification
Vinification
The hand-harvested grapes were fermented in separate stainless steel 10 tanks for up to 10 days at a controlled temperature between 22°c to 24°C. After four days the grapes were pressed and transferred to stainless steel to complete fermentation and undergo malolactic fermentation. The wine was then aged for 12 months: 30% in used French oak barrels and the remainder in stainless steel.
