Xutos & Pontapés

The new vintage of Herdade de São Miguel Xutos & Pontapés is here! A red wine crafted from the premium grape varieties Alicante Bouschet, Aragonez, and Touriga Nacional, featuring a label illustrated by Portuguese artist Maria Reis Rocha.

“This partnership with Xutos has been a great pleasure for us. Strengthening this collaboration annually for 12 years now and bringing our wines together with the music and musicians who are the most emblematic of our country is a fantastic way to celebrate and savor what is ours. This 2021 vintage from Herdade de São Miguel is undoubtedly worthy of a toast to Portuguese culture and tradition,” says Alexandre Relvas.

All band members were directly involved, particularly in the blending process and label design. The wine perfectly expresses the personality of Xutos & Pontapés.

Casa Relvas

Casa Relvas was born out of the desire to continue the history of a family connected to the earth over five generations on two continents. This family project was started in 1997 in São Miguel de Machede, in Redondo, by Alexandre Relvas, who saw the vast horizons of his roots in Africa at the São Miguel Estate. His passion for the Alentejo and respect for its unique and genuine nature led to the first step being the typical foresting of the montado. But it was in the vineyard, a culture with over 2000 years of history in the region, that we discovered our vocation.
