Adega Mayor Reserva 2017

On the plains of Alentejo instants are depicted as a whole. In each bottle a land’s self-portrait opens. That is how we keep eternal truths, in the instants we feel.

Dark ruby colour. The nose is intense, with notes of blueberry, ripe plum and dark chocolate.
It is broad and balanced on the palate, with polished tannins that lead us to a long and persistent finish.

PAIR WITH This wine has soul and is a good match for white meat, game or simply pasta or soft and intense cheese.
