4 /5

A compra da Casa Agrícola José de Sousa Rosado Fernandes em 1986 veio concretizar um sonho antigo da família Soares Franco: produzir vinho do Alentejo numa propriedade carregada de prestígio (continua mítico o José de Sousa tinto velho de 1940) e de história (produz-se vinho nesta casa pelo menos desde 1878), utilizando métodos tradicionais de vinificação. As castas Trincadeira, Aragonês e Grand Noir, em perfeitas condições de maturação e sanidade, são pisadas a pés, fermentando o mosto com películas em potes de barro.

Colour of glacé cherry. Cedarwood aromas.Do not know what had to taste like, but it was tasty.
I had it with a birthday cake.
We drank with another couple.

4/5

This is the wine recommended at the restaurant I usually go.
Wonderful cherry colour and high layer. Strong smell of berries. It is the softest wine of Alentejo.

4/5

Red with violet edges. Dense aroma of red fruit marmalade. It reminded me of licorice.
It was too well-bodied for our meal.
