This is a surprising find from the wine region nearest to the capital city of Lisbon. Lisboa (formerly Estremadura) is a prolific wine region located at the center of Portugal's Atlantic coast. The bottle presentation is elegant with the label printed on a thin slice of cork, but even better is the lush, delicious wine in the bottle. Made from a mix of old indigenous grape varieties including Castelao, Syrah and Tinta Miuda, this is a wine with real warmth, a wine perfect for the autumn and its big meals rich with roasted meats and birds. On the nose and palate is an ensemble of dark fruits - plums, back currents, and cherry along with meaty, savory flavors augmented by herbal notes. This is a wine that loves lamb; think a roast rack with a cherry reduction sauce. Also, pair with stews, roast poultry or maybe to finish the holiday feast with a plate of aged hard cheeses.
