Amoras 2021

Item Code: 0287321

Description

Portugal is “the most exciting wine place on the planet” says Wine Spectator. And lots of 4 & 5-Star online reviews suggest that Amoras is one of the country’s best-value finds.



Portugal’s characterful reds are woefully under represented in the UK. But we’re righting that wrong with full-flavoured beauties like Amoras.

It comes from Casa Santos Lima, a grand, family-run property near Lisbon and the Atlantic coast.

The winery was founded by Joaquim Santos Lima in the late 19th century, and three generations later is one of Portugal’s most go-ahead cellars, with Maria João Santos Lima and José Luís Santos Lima Oliveira da Silva, granddaughter and great grandson of the founder, at the helm.

Amoras brings together four cracking local grape varieties: leafy raspberry Castelão, juicy cherry-rich Camarate, cassis-laden Touriga Nacional and plummy Alicante Bouschet.

Superb as a glass on its own or with pork-bean casserole.

Lobo e Falcão 2021

Item Code: 1948221

Description

Fans of smooth, mouthfilling wines take note – this is a sure contender for the Big Red crown, with hundreds of 5-star reviews. A delicious blend of Portuguese grapes from a former royal falconry, it has lovely warmth, richness and spicy fruit.



Wine Spectator calls Portugal “the most exciting wine place on the planet”, with its terrific range of native grape varieties and wines that always offer standout value. The rich, mouthfilling Lobo e Falcão fits firmly in that category. It’s made at a 17th century estate owned by the Lobo de Vasconcelos family, once the location of the king’s falconry. Special barrels of wine were kept for the king when he visited. Today, talented winemaker Joana Lopes makes this red specially for us, blending Syrah with Portugal’s exciting native grapes. Previously awarded a Wine Enthusiast Best Buy Award, the 2021 has lovely intensity of flavour due to another dry year. Generous wild berry fruit and spice with a velvet texture – a very moreish red.

Lobo e Falcão Reserva 2020

Item Code: 2641120

Description

The richly rewarding Reserva edition of Lobo e Falcão from Portugal's Tejo. Crafted from a delicious blend of Portuguese grapes, with a large portion of Syrah, it has lovely warmth, richness and dark, spicy fruit.



First we brought you the (far from) standard Lobo e Falcão, with its dense ripe fruit and weight. It went down a storm, so a few years back we also introduced the Reserva edition. The wines are from an historic estate that has been in the same family for over 200 years. In the 17th century, it was the king’s falconry and special barrels of wine were kept aside for royal visits. Today, fourth-generation José Lobo de Vasconcelos (Lobo means wolf) heads up the property, with its expansive vineyards, some of which are over a 100 years old. The cellar remains one of the region’s most innovative, with Joana de Lopes as winemaker. Dark, spicy Syrah along with native varieties and a layer of creamy oak, this is a top choice for slow cooked beef.

Not only is this white superbly refreshing, it's also great value. Two reasons we love to champion wines from Portugal. It’s made by a top winemaker from two native grapes – Verdelho and Fernão Pires – to make it dazzling and citrus fresh.
