Alandra Tinto/red 375ml
★★★★★ 5.0 (1 review)Pour this and you get a glassful of squashed berries and easy charm. It's a young Portuguese red that doesn't ask you to think too hard. Soft, fruity, a little floral, with tannins so gentle they barely tap your tongue. The half-bottle size is the real flex here. Just enough for a quiet night in or to split with one person over the grill, no half-finished bottle going flat on the counter. Craving one? Say the word and we'll have it at your door.
Stick your nose in and it's all ripe wild berries, think blackberry and dark plum, with a faint floral lift behind the fruit. The sip is smooth and rounded, juicy fruit up front, a clean freshness keeping it lively, and those fine tannins (the bit that gives red wine its grip) sitting soft in the background. It's properly dry, not sweet, just generous with the fruit. Medium-light in body, so it goes down easy without weighing you down.
The details
Pairs well with
Where it's from
This comes from Esporão, one of Portugal's big-name wineries, based down in the sun-baked Alentejo plains in the south. They've been at it since 1973 and helped put Alentejo wine on the map worldwide. Alandra is their friendly everyday line, built from native Portuguese grapes most people outside the country have never heard of: Castelão, Touriga Nacional and Trincadeira. Touriga Nacional is the same grape that goes into serious Port, so there's real pedigree hiding in this cheerful little bottle.
