WINE DESCRIPTION

Loios Tinto is a red wine produced by Casa Santos Lima, a renowned winery located in the Lisbon region of Portugal. The wine is made from a blend of traditional Portuguese grape varieties, grown in the vineyards of the Alenquer region. The vineyards are characterized by their clay-limestone soils and a Mediterranean climate, which provides ideal conditions for grape growing. The winemaking process involves a careful selection of grapes, followed by fermentation in stainless steel tanks and aging in oak barrels. The resulting wine is a medium-bodied red with a deep ruby color, offering aromas of ripe red fruits and spices. On the palate, it is smooth and well-balanced, with a long and pleasant finish. Loios Tinto is a versatile wine that pairs well with a variety of dishes, making it a great choice for any occasion.
