About this wine

This red blend from Vale dos Vinhedos brings together Syrah, Merlot, Malbec and Cabernet Sauvignon in a full-bodied, dry style marked by ripe dark fruit and savoury spice. Expect firm yet generally ripe tannins, moderate freshness and possible oak-derived notes; the exact balance may vary by vintage. At 13.5% alcohol, it is substantial without necessarily feeling heavy.
