Aphros Vinhão Tinto 2013

Blog

Sauvage is the word that comes to mind when describing this singular and biodynamically farmed, wild ferment Vinhão. Aromas of smoky plum and earth are rendered more complex by a sort of feral, animal quality that persists on the palate as well. A bold streak of acidity creates a sense of tension to sour cherry notes firmly anchored in damp tilth, preserved game, steeped green tea, and pink peppercorn. This won’t be to everyone’s taste, but for the adventurous, I say, go for it. 11.0% ABV | Sample
