Description

Cartuxa - Évora Reserva Tinto is an exceptional red wine from the Alentejo region of Portugal, produced by the prestigious Cartuxa winery. Known for its elegance, complexity, and rich character, this wine is crafted from carefully selected grapes from the Évora sub-region. The Évora Reserva Tinto offers a more refined and concentrated expression compared to the standard Cartuxa wines, making it an ideal choice for connoisseurs and those seeking a wine with depth and aging potential.

Cartuxa - Évora Reserva Tinto is made from a blend of native Portuguese red grape varieties, including Aragonez, Trincadeira, and Alicante Bouschet, all grown in the warm, sun-soaked vineyards of the Évora region. The wine undergoes a meticulous fermentation process, followed by aging in French and American oak barrels. This oak aging imparts complexity, structure, and smooth tannins, resulting in a full-bodied, elegant wine with excellent aging potential.
