Venancio da Costa Lima2018 Palmela 4a Geracao
Tasting Note
Produced to celebrate the experience passed down through the four generations of the family. Here, carefully selected Castelao grapes are blended with their best Syrah grapes and aged six months in French oak. Deep, dark cherry in colour, with a wonderfully expressive bouquet, of ripe plum and damson fruits and subtle notes of cedar. Seriously structured, but very harmonious with the same tantalizing, fruit characteristics coming through on the palate. An attractive rusticity here. This is not a squeaky clean, technically made wine, but a wine with real charm and personality.
