On the palate, Pêra-Manca Tinto delivers generous, opulent flavors, firm tannins, and a well-balanced acidity. Its remarkable depth culminates in a lingering and deliciously enjoyable finish, making it a true masterpiece.
Pêra-Manca Tinto is the indisputable flagship of Eugénio de Almeida, renowned worldwide among wine lovers and connoisseurs. Crafted solely from exceptional vintages, this unique offering is produced in limited quantities, infused with passion and meticulous attention to tradition.
As with previous vintages, this new release features an innovative security system that certifies the authenticity of this precious product. The security system, engraved on the capsule, comprises a unique code linked to a holographic print issued by the national mint, enabling traceability of the seal's origin and assuring consumers of the wine's premium quality.
The grapes for this masterfully crafted wine underwent fermentation with indigenous yeast, controlled at 27°C in large French oak barrels, followed by slow and extended maceration. After fermentation, the wine matured for 18 months in French barriques, with an additional 48 months of bottle aging in the cellars of the Cartuxa Monastery.
