Monte Bluna Reserva Red is a wine with a deep and brilliant crimson colour. Its aroma is grandiose, underlined by its quality and remarkable richness in multiple dimensions. Fresh and extremely elegant red fruit, notes of forest and delicate hints of plant life. Surrounded by well-integrated wood bringing sweet spices and cocoa, all set against a backdrop of limestone that lingers in the memory. On the palate, it is elegant, with an exquisite balance between the generosity of the body, full of substance and vibrant freshness. It has ample, luxurious and rich tannins, integrated, elevating the tasting experience. The finish is admirably long and enveloping.

  • Soil: Located on the Moinho do Céu site, a pristine hill in the Rio Grande da Pipa Basin, which forms part of the Tejo River Basin. The vineyards are located at high altitudes on slopes of varying steepness, flanked by the Tejo to the east, the Atlantic Ocean to the west and the Serra de Montejunto to the north, on clay-limestone and limestone soils.
  • Winemaking: Hand-picked, with selection, into small 20 kg boxes. In the winery, the grapes were again hand-picked and then destemmed. The crushing (passive) was the result of transport to the tank. They enjoyed a day of pre-fermentation maceration and then fermented at a temperature of 23ºC. The malolactic transformation, to finish, was carried out in a cement tank. After transformation, Aragonez matured in used French (80%) and American (20%) oak casks from October 2017 to November 2018. Tinta Miúda aged in used French oak casks for the same period.
  • Tasting Notes: It has a deep and brilliant carmine colour. Its aroma is very stylish, underlined by its quality and remarkable richness in multiple dimensions. Fresh and extremely elegant red fruit, notes of forest and delicate hints of plant life. Surrounded by well-integrated wood bringing sweet spices and cocoa, all set against a background of limestone that lingers in the memory. In the mouth it is elegant, with an exquisite balance between the generosity of the body, full of substance and vibrant freshness. It has ample, luxurious and rich tannins, integrated, enhancing the tasting experience. The finish is admirably long and enveloping.
  • Maturation: Aragonez was aged in used French (80%) and American (20%) oak casks from October 2017 to November 2018. Tinta Miúda was aged in used French oak casks for the same period. The batch was made 1 month after the casks were removed, in December 2018, and rested for another 12 months in stainless steel containers to enhance the sensory experience and increase complexity.
  • Serve: Between 15ºC and 17ºC. It should be decanted 1 hour before serving.
  • Winemaker: Nuno Martins da Silva
  • Conservation: Although it can be consumed immediately, it has the potential to evolve for many years in the bottle, as long as it is stored properly.
  • Food Pairing: Grilled or stewed red meats, game with fur or feathers and cured cheeses.
  • Bottle Size: 75cl
  • Allergens: Contains sulfites
