Azamor Single Estate Tinto is a unique blend of red Portuguese grapes that gives this wine a rich palate with an abundance of delicious soft dark red and plummy fruit tones. It opens with a gorgeous aroma of  lush, deep red fruit perfume. On the palate, the wine is well-rounded with sumptuous soft fruit flavours.

The flavours give way to full, ripe tannins on the finish with a pleasing level of smoothness.

Brief Description

About

Azamor use a combination of indigenous Portuguese varieties (Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca and Trincadeira) and international varieties (Syrah, Alicante Bouschet, Petit Verdot and Merlot) from their single estate vines to produce a bold yet refined red, packed with juicy fruit and ripe tannins.

Vineyards: The Azamor vineyards are unique. The 27 hectares of vineyards, situated at 350 metres above sea level, look out over a vast landscape including a breathtaking view of Spain. They are the most densely planted in the region of Alentejo; the north-south rows are planted 2.2 metres by 0.9 metres. The vines grow on clay soils with bedrock of schist, one to two metres deep.

Winemaking: All grape varieties were fermented in separate stainless-steel tanks at controlled temperatures. The fruit underwent a period of cold maceration prior to fermentation to help extract tannins and aromatics. Post-fermentation, the wine was then pressed off the skins before undergoing malolactic fermentation. It was aged in stainless steel tanks, and blended before bottling.

Ideal with...

Grilled red meats like beef, lamb and veal, or chargrilled chicken.
