Ramilo Vale Lizandro Vinho Regional Lisboa
A vibrant wine with dark fresh fruit aromas, black cherry and apples. It is supple with a juicy acidity, tangy red cherry flavours and a slightly chewy finish. Produced from a blend of Aragonez (Tempranillo) and Touriga Nacional grapes, these were grown on the 20-hectare Quinta do Casal do Ramilo estate which has been in the family’s hands for four generations. The estate is located in the Lizandro Valley close to the Sintra Mountains and was a major wine producing area in the 19th century.
Ramilo Colheita Branco Vinho Regional Lisboa
Portugal’s reputation for white wines has been gaining in stature in recent years. The freshness and minerality of this wine reminds me of young Chablis. Produced from Arinto, Viosinho and Alvarinho grapes, it has subtle white fruit and lime aromas with citrus and green apple characters on the palate.
Ramilo Colheita Tinto Vinho Regional Lisboa
Fresh mixed berry fruits, blackberries and blueberries are mixed with some more savoury mineral notes. This is a medium-bodied red with supple mid-palate fruit. Tasted as a tank sample, it should benefit from some bottle age.
