Villa Alvor Tinto is an elegant yet characterful red wine from the Algarve, Portugal’s southernmost region. The vines grow on the region’s distinctive limestone soils, close to the Atlantic coast, giving this wine a surprising freshness and mineral touch, rare in such a warm climate.
The blend typically includes local grapes such as Touriga Nacional, Trincadeira, and Alicante Bouschet, often complemented by Syrah. The winemaking process focuses on preserving the vibrant fruit and elegant tannins.
On the nose, it offers aromas of ripe red berries, spices, and a touch of herbal notes. The palate is smooth and well-structured, with balanced acidity and a long, rounded finish. A versatile red wine that pairs beautifully with food or can be enjoyed on its own.
Perfect with grilled dishes, pasta, aged cheeses, or traditional Portuguese cuisine.
