Ai Galera Poetico Red 2019

Long overlooked by the wine cognoscenti, the burgeoning interest in Portuguese wine is finally resulting in more awareness of the potential of this proud country. The previously undervalued Tejo region, lying to the south of Lisbon, is capable of producing wines of enormous value and character– something that is captured by Ai Galera.

This wine is an intense ruby color with hints of red berry fruits and is a blend of 40% Castelao, 40% Trincadeira and 20% Tinta Miuda. Round in the mouth and with a medium body, this wine has a well-rounded finish and mellow tannins. This easy going red is perfectly paired with white meats and soft cheese.
