Red wine Regional Alentejano / Vinha da Coutada Velha / Vinho tinto, 750ml

The 2023/2024 vintage will be delivered. The 2022 vintage was awarded a gold medal in Brussels. This red wine from the Alentejo region comes from a coutada (forest clearing) of the Herdade da Mata, an area that has served as a reserve for decades to preserve its rich biodiversity. These wines have a traditional Alentejo profile and reflect the identity of the region.

The Monte da Ravasqueira winery, owned for generations by the José de Mello family, is located in the municipality of Arraiolos and covers a vast area of ​​typical Alentejo landscape. With the aim of producing excellent Alentejo wines, the company has thoroughly studied the soils, slopes, drainage, and sun exposure to extract the best from each grape variety. Profiles, brands, and styles were defined sustainably until they achieved the stability of today's portfolio.

The distinctive profile of the Alentejo, which combines exuberance and intensity due to the hot climate, is balanced by the selection of a few key grape varieties that provide freshness, such as Cabernet Sauvignon in the red wines. Wines of great personality, with an identity, yet refined.
There are few things more Alentejo than discovering new flavors at the table. Local aromas, including delicacies and wines, make them inviting and an authentic experience for food lovers.
