Dry · Light-bodied · Low tannin · High acidity · Refreshing · Easygoing
Seventy percent Jaen and Alfrocheiro co-fermented with thirty percent Encruzado and Bical: spicier than its colour suggests, with discreet fruit and a green edge from the stems.
Dry · Full-bodied · Medium tannin · High acidity · Bold · Savoury
An old-vine field selection in intense ruby: red and ripe fruit with floral and wild scrub notes, spiced and balsamic, full but with natural acidity and mineral drive.
Dry · Medium-bodied · Medium tannin · High acidity · Elegant · Savoury
Field blend of roughly forty varieties off 75 year old vines, gently extracted: sour cherry and cranberry with flint, truffle and violets, finessed rather than powerful.
Dry · Medium-bodied · Medium tannin · High acidity · Savoury · Contemplative
Drawn from all seven parcels of the estate and 48 varieties of 75 year old vines, three years in used cask leave it elegant and lush rather than hard.

Dry · Medium-bodied · High acidity · Refreshing

Dry · Medium-bodied · Medium tannin · High acidity · Savoury · Bold

Dry · Full-bodied · Firm tannin · High acidity · Bold · Contemplative
A single-vineyard field blend from the Peach Tree parcel where every variety is interplanted: deep, blackcurrant-and-pine scented, with oak-given vanilla and chocolate.
Dry · Medium-bodied · Medium tannin · High acidity · Rustic · Savoury
The estate's five-grape house red: wild blackcurrant and pine leaves over a vanilla note from the oak, generous and still astringent in youth.
Dry · Full-bodied · High acidity · Contemplative · Elegant
Golden, from a multi-vintage assembly of old Teixuga vineyard whites aged years in used barrel: apricot, hazelnut and soft smoke, fresh but explosive in the middle.
