Wine Description:
Quinta do Poço do Lobo Reserva is a distinguished red wine from the Bairrada appellation, crafted by the renowned Caves São João winery. This blend features indigenous Portuguese grape varieties Baga and Touriga Nacional, alongside Cabernet Sauvignon. The vineyard benefits from Bairrada's maritime climate, producing grapes with balanced acidity and complex flavors. The grapes are hand-harvested, and after a 10-day maceration, the wine undergoes malolactic fermentation, followed by aging for 12 months in French oak barrels. The result is a structured, full-bodied wine with rich tannins, showcasing dark fruit flavors, earthy undertones, and subtle spice from the oak, making it a perfect choice for aging or pairing with hearty dishes.
