Description

Menino António is a wine with great aromatic complexity of red fruits, spices, graphite, and liquorice, very well-integrated barrels, and a light balsamic note that gives freshness to the bouquet. In the mouth, the attack is soft but starts to grow thanks to the great tannic structure, good acidity, and long finish. It needs time to show itself fully.

Herdade da Malhadinha Nova is the representation of an ambitious and innovative project of the Soares family, who have transformed a piece of Alentejo land, into one of the most beautiful and charismatic estates in the Alentejo.

Located in Albernoa and currently possessing 80 hectares of vineyards, it is here that wines full of personality are created, whose labels are based on the children's drawings of their offspring. In addition to the focus on vines and wine, the estate is also farmed for olive groves and olive oil production, as well as rural and wine tourism activities.
