2019 Encosta do Sobral Grande Reserva red

Encosta do Sobral Reserva red wine is produced from the Syrah, Touriga Franca, Touriga Nacional and Cabernet Sauvignon grape varieties. After maturing in French oak barrels for 18 months, the wine has a concentrated ruby colour, with aromas of black fruit, chocolate, jam and spices. In the mouth, it reveals present but soft tannins.

Encosta do Sobral is an estate in the sub-region of Tomar, situated in the northernmost vineyards of the Tejo, which is distinguished by its schist soils. With 70 hectares of vineyard, it is privileged for its geographical location and unique landscape.

Santos & Seixo is a family company, formed by two families.

Alzira dos Santos and Pedro Seixo dreamed of taking up the history of both families and dedicating themselves body and soul to wine. The dream became reality when they carried out their first harvests in the country's most emblematic regions, Douro and Alentejo, in 2010.

The project grew and today the family owns properties and produces wines in Douro, Alentejo and the Vinho Verde region. In a combination of modern and traditional, from the careful selection of grapes to the production and ageing in oak barrels, all processes are done to preserve as much as possible the genuineness of the grape.
