Description
Free to roam in the mountains, where it feeds on acorns, the native Alentejano pig - nicknamed "Trinca Bolotas" - 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, that invites enjoyment. Named after this reputable pig, this wine combines two of Alentejo's biggest symbols
