Herdade de Esporão - Quatro Castas

My good freind (wine importer) made this recommendation for Christmas. It is a bottle that requires you to pay a bit more, but makes for good celebration. 
This wine assalts your palate immediatly and ends with a mild woody bouquet. This wine would grace any  table or with good conversation!

Monte do Pardal



It was surprisingly able to hold its own. The taste was mild with slight degree of body towards the end. Expect this wine to be mild and a bit fruity.

Frei Joao




Frei Joao has never disappointed until now. I recall drinking great bottles of this red wine we had in our celler. This wine was too young as the bottles in our cellar were a quite a few years older. Did not expect it to not have so little to offer.

Adega de Pegoes


I have chosen this wine to begin my dialog of wines because it is appropriate for out times. 
Due to our economies being what they are, there is no reason to not enjoy a good wine. We are fortunate that our country does not insist that you break the bank to have a good bottle of wine.


I find this wine to be good red inexpensive table wine.  It can accompany any variety of meats and cheeses. This wine is will leave you satisfied. It is better if drunk at room temperature.
