Description
Free to roam in the oak forests, where it feeds on acorns, the "Trinca Bolotas" pig - native to Portugal - is the only surviving grazing pig in Europe. The way in which it shapes the landscape and preserves the Mediterranean woodlands of the region is part of Alentejo's heritage. It is also a gastronomic treasure, always present in the local cuisine. Named after this reputable pig, this wine combines two of Alentejo's biggest symbols.
Tasting
A wine with an intense aroma, complex and appealing. A blend of aromas that is, on one hand, remarkably fruity yet, on the other, shrubby. On the palate, it has very well-integrated tannins and a good acidity that result in an incredibly appetising wine.
This wine pairs wonderfully with, preferably roasted, meat dishes. However, the balance between its fruit element and its tannins make it incredibly versatile and suitable for any type of dining: from the simple to the sophisticated.
Contains sulfites
