2021 Casa Relvas Sommelier Edition red 1.5L

Sommelier Edition is the result of a collaboration between the Associação dos Escanções de Portugal and Casa Relvas, which aims to honour this noble profession in the world of wine.

This ruby-coloured red with violet reflections was produced with the Touriga Franca, Alicante Bouschet and Touriga Nacional grape varieties. With a complex aroma of ripe red fruits, white flowers and spices, well integrated with hints of vanilla, on the palate this is a round, rich and voluminous wine, with balanced acidity and fine tannins, with a long and complex finish.

Casa Relvas is a family project, started in 1997 in São Miguel de Machede, in Redondo, by Alexandre Relvas, which aims to continue the history of five generations with a strong passion for the Alentejo and its genuine nature. Over the years, the family has grown along with the business and it didn't take long for it to total about 750 hectares of Montado forest, 225 hectares of olive groves, and 350 hectares of 100% integrated production vineyards.

With the three estates - Herdade de São Miguel, Herdade da Pimenta and Herdade de São Miguel de Machede - Casa Relvas has the capacity to produce 6 million bottles of wine annually, 70% of which is to meet the needs of the foreign market, being present in over 30 countries worldwide, offering the best of the Alentejo.
