2021 Herdade Papa Leite One in a Million red

A flagship of Herdade Papa Leite, with a limited production of only 1,200 bottles, One in a Million red combines the powerful structure of Syrah with the aromatic touch of Viognier. The nose presents elegant notes of peach and apricot, wrapped in nuances of spice and oak. On the palate, it is concentrated and full-bodied, with firm yet balanced tannins, and a long, enveloping finish.

The Papa Leite Estate, located in Alter do Chão, in the heart of the Alto Alentejo, dates back to the 17th century and even today, one can still find traces of that time. After many families passed through there, it was Filipe Barreiros Cardoso who, in love with the property, acquired it, making an old dream of producing high-quality products come true with the support of his family and team. Thus the estate was expanded and revitalised, now boasting 320 hectares extended to the production of wine, olive oil, and cattle. The vines are planted in clay soils and the grapes are harvested at night and selected before entering the winery, where the production of wine with the best raw material is guaranteed.
