Adega Mayor Caiado 2019 Red

In the shadow of the days and in the light of the night, the Alentejo whitewashing tradition (“caiado”) paints imagination and draws the path of every dream. With colours springing from the Earth, this wine brushes moments and must be drunk with the heart.

TASTING

With a ruby violet colour, its aspect is pure and inviting. The nose is young and exuberant, full of sweet and concentrated red fruit that leads to a candy-like jam feeling. It is frank and silky on the palate, where its acidity, fresh fruit and prominent but correct tannins outline a balanced and genuine profile from Alentejo.

PAIRING
