Herdade do Sobroso Reserva Tinto 2023

Description

The grapes were hand picked and vinified in stainless steel vats at a controlled temperature 21 days of post-fermentation maceration to refine the tannins. The wine was then aged for 12 months in 500 litre French Allier oak barrels.

A full-bodied wine with deep red colour. Its complex aroma presents traces of mature red berries, jam and chocolate offering an intense and prolonged aftertaste.

Herdade do Sobroso

Three generations of the Hesketh family have been involved in the wine industry for over sixty years, but an aversion to convention has always led them to follow 'the path less travelled by'. In 2006 Jonathon and Trish established the Hesketh Wine Company to produce wines that reflect the family's history. This translates to their wine being known for regional typicity and clear varietal expression and a level of sophistication beyond the selling prices. Quality is the overriding priority.

Alentejo

Alentejo, located in southern Portugal, is one of the country's largest wine regions. Known for its vast, sun-drenched landscapes and diverse terroirs, it benefits from a Mediterranean climate with hot, dry summers and mild winters, which is ideal for viticulture.
The area is renowned for its robust red wines, often crafted from indigenous varieties such as Aragonez (Tempranillo), Trincadeira, and Alicante Bouschet. These reds are characterised by their rich, full-bodied profiles, with deep fruit flavours, well-integrated tannins, and a smooth finish. It also produces notable whites from grapes like Antão Vaz and Arinto, which are known for their fresh acidity, citrus notes, and aromatic qualities.
