CARMIM Tarefa Tinto ★ 4.0

Vinho Regional AlentejanoAragonez, Trincadeira, Moreto, Castelao, Alicante BouschetEUR 14.90 producer outlet

A field-blend red from old vineyards, mixing five traditional Alentejo varieties into a deep garnet wine with dark fruit and mineral notes, built for traditional Alentejo cooking.

Tip: Pair it with grilled cured meats or aged cheese; the old-vine field-blend character shows best with rustic Alentejo food.

Wine and cheese

Alentejo cheese with Moreto

All Alentejo pairings
Queijo de Évora Our pick Évora is a small, firm ewe's cheese, slightly picante and acid, more so in the hard paste. A medium-bodied Alentejo red with moderate tannin refreshes the mouth between slices without laying a heavy tannic coat over the cheese. Medium-bodied Alentejo red, Alentejo: Granja Amareleja Tinto DOC
Queijo Mestiço de Tolosa Our pick Tolosa's semi-soft paste and slightly picante finish want a red with no grip. Moreto and Tinta Carvalha are light in body, low in tannin and made with minimal oak, so the wine stays fresh beside the spice instead of fighting it. Light, low-tannin single-variety red, Alentejo: Moreto
