Rich and complex aroma; On the palate this wine has good balance, soft tannins, mineral freshness, with long and persistent finish. The expression of a special "terroir" different from the known Alentejo, capable of making wines with a more elegant, fresher and more balanced profile. Limited production of 3000 bottles.
Contrary to the flat, warm image often associated with Alentejo, this region is hilly and forested, situated at an altitude of 600 to 900 meters. This means cooler temperatures and greater day-night variations, causing the grapes to ripen more slowly and gradually with a finer natural acidity; hence, Terrenus wines often appear elegant and fresh rather than heavy.
Food-Pairing
The ideal wine for white and red (grilled) meat dishes, game dishes, roast beef, grilled fish and cheeses
