Product information "Cartuxa Tinto Reserva 2017"
The Cartuxa Tinto Reserva was produced from two of the most classic grape varieties of the Alentejo - Trincadeira and Alicante Bouschet. The top quality grapes used here come from the oldest vineyards of the Eugénio de Almeida Foundation. An extraordinary concentration, intense fruit aromas and delicious berry notes distinguish this remarkable wine and ensure absolute pleasure. On the palate this Reserva is perfectly balanced, delicate, long lasting and soft on the finish.
The ultimate Cartuxa flagship reflects the tradition and fame of the first "winemakers" on Cartuxa. They were Carthusian monks who settled in the Santa Maria Scala Coeli convent in 1598.

After temperature-controlled fermentation in steel tanks at 27°C, the wine matured for 15 months in new French barriques, followed by a further 12 months in the bottle. Only then was this special drop released for consumption.
