Another great value red blend from Portugal, the Herdade de Colheiros Red.
A blend of 50% Aragonez (Tempranillo) and 50% Alicante Bouschet from the Taco and Sobreira vineyards in Alentejo, Portugal. The wine spends 12 months in French oak barrels and has just 0.4 g/L of residual sugar.
Sample submitted for review. The Herdade de Colheiros has an SRP of $20 and is available for as low as $16. It is imported by Grape 2 Glass.
Made from Aragonez and Alicante Bouschet. Fermented with indigenous yeast to best express our vineyards and soils. Aged for one year in used barrels.
14% Alcohol
The 2017 Herdade de Colheiros Red begins with an enticing aroma of dark, ripe fruit and nice touches of spice.
The wine tastes just like it smells which is a good thing. Featuring lots of juicy, fresh, rich, deep, dark fruit flavors and pleasing touches of spice throughout, this one really opens up nicely after a couple hours in the glass.
It ends dry and quite long with lots of lingering dark fruit and spice plus a little earthiness on the slightly chewy finish. Good stuff, this is another great value red blend from Portugal.
