O Produtor, tasting note published in July 15th 2019

A red wine with a very distinctive structure in the mouth, on a par with wines from much higher price brackets. Produced from Touriga Nacionaland Syrah grape varieties, it presents a very well present tannins, and a certain rusticity and austerity. It is a wine that is tasty enough, with a lot of personality and very firm aromas. Deep red colour, the aroma of ripe fruit such as black plum and blackberry, and a floral touch of violets typical of Touriga Nacional. On the palate the black fruits are confirmed, well married with wood, giving it great complexity.

Vinification after 2 days of cold maceration to enrich the aromas, fermentation took place for 6 days at 24ºC, with delestage to facilitate the extraction of colour and tannins which contribute to the body and volume in the mouth.
Along with the round velvety tannins responsible for the volume in the mouth. A very pleasant, full-bodied, elegant and very persistent set, which aged for 18 months in French and American oak barrels.

Pêra Grave, Sociedade Agrícola Unipessoal Lda.

Quinta de São José de Peramanca is located five kilometers from Evora, on state highway 114. The large and traditional house, marked by baroque architecture, and the adjacent church of São José, helps the identification. With 34 acres, the greatest asset of the property is the manor house and its vineyard. As for the peculiar name of the “Peramanca”, it means “oscillating stone, unsafe”, it’s explained by the existence of large, oscillating granite stones in the region. Since Roman times and over the centuries, the surrounding area to the west of Evora was considered one of the most important quality wine producing regions, having the area become known as the “Land of Peramanca”, given the abundance of these swinging stones. In the late nineteenth century, the wines produced there won several medals in international competitions. However, by that time, the scourge of phylloxera has come to end up with wine cultivation almost everywhere in the country.
