Product information "Cartuxa Colheita Tinto 2021"

Cartuxa Colheita Tinto was produced from the classic and probably most famous grape varieties of the Alentejo - Trincadeira, Aragonez, Alicante Bouschet and Cabernet Sauvignon. Seductive aromas of ripe berry fruit flow from the glass and enchant the nose. On the palate this first class Alentejo wine presents itself wonderfully concentrated and elegant, with a round structure and well-balanced tannin. Its finish is pleasantly persistent and soft.

This flagship wine reflects the tradition and fame of the first "winemakers" on Cartuxa; they were Carthusian monks who settled in the Santa Maria Scala Coeli monastery in 1587.

Treatment in the cellar

The grapes have been hand-picked with great care, destemmed and lightly crushed. After completion of temperature-controlled fermentation in stainless steel tanks, the wine was aged for 12 months in French barriques, and another 12 months in the bottle.
