"This has a lovely purity on the nose with aromas of red currants, blackcurrants, dried herbs and warm stones. The palate is medium-bodied and super drinkable, with supple tannins and a delicate red fruit finish. This comes from 80-year-old head-pruned vines planted on clay and limestone soil in "is do Bairro. The wine fermented and aged in 400- and 700-liter clay amphorae. Love the drinkability. From biodynamically grown grapes with Demeter certification. Drink now."
