This is a wine for special occasions that combines the universal culture of wine and art, via the reproduction of original works of art on its labels. This powerful red wine has exhibits hints of black fruit jam with spices, like black pepper & cloves, combined with notes of coffee berries and cigars. In the mouth, it is intense and dense, but with robust tannins, affording it structure and complexity and suggesting good potential for aging in the bottle. Every year, an artist is ordered to make a new label for the bottle. Label illustrated by architect Alvaro Siza Vieira.
 
The first wine made by Esporão in 1985. Obtained from grapes grown at Herdade do Esporão, it shows the consistency and rich character typical of the best Alentejo wines
