Other Info:

Herdade de São Miguel is based in the up and coming Alentejo wine region which lies to the south-east of Portugal on the border with the Algarve. The region itself occupies about a third of Portugal, but is home to only one tenth of the country’s population and is perfect land for grape growing. This combined with the long hours of sunlight (essential for building complexity and fruit flavours) means that Herdade has access to some of the best grapes in Portugal. By combining native Portuguese varities with more well known International ones, and by using both traditional and modern winemaking practices, Herdade produce wines of great complexity and character.

This wine possesses complex berry aromas with spicy raspberry and some toasted notes as a result of a short period in oak, the result being a rounded, smooth, rich and balanced style.
