Vinha do Monte Vinho Regional Alentejano Tinto from Alentejo, Portugal, is a vibrant Red (still) wine, dry and easy-drinking. This expressive blend of Aragonez (Tempranillo), Trincadeira, Alicante Bouschet, and Syrah grapes undergoes fermentation in stainless steel before a brief maturation in used French oak barrels. The result is a wine boasting ripe and juicy cherry, blackberry, and strawberry flavours, beautifully complemented by a subtle spiciness, smooth tannins, and refreshing acidity. Its forward fruit profile and balanced structure make it a versatile choice, pairing wonderfully with everything from roasted poultry to hearty pasta dishes. This wine is certified vegan and vegetarian.

75.0CL , 13.0% ABV

Vinification

The grapes were picked at optimum phenolic ripeness and transported to the winery. After total destemming and gentle crushing, the must was fermented in stainless-steel tanks at a controlled temperature of 25°C for about eight days, to maximise fruit flavours and create an easy-drinking red wine. After malolactic fermentation, the wine spent three months in used French oak barrels and was then blended, lightly fined and filtered prior to bottling.

Flavour profile

This easy-drinking red wine offers vibrant aromas of ripe and juicy cherry and blackberry, complemented by a subtle spiciness. On the palate, it delivers luscious strawberry and cherry flavours, supported by smooth tannins and a refreshing acidity that leads to a pleasant finish.
