The Van Zellers have led the way in wine in Portugal's Douro for 15 generations, and have produced some of its finest reds. This is no exception. Packed with luscious ripe fruit, spice and violets hints with plush ripe tannins, it's rich and warming.
This juicy Portuguese red from the renowned Van Zeller family delighted customers when we launched it last vintage. It's only 11% abv and still full of Douro flavour. A fresh-tasting, juicy red, packed with black fruit and spice.
Velvety, black fruit Alicante Bouschet is usually reserved for Portugal's red blends, but José Neiva Correia has given it centre stage here. Fellow winemakers called it madness but 49 Golds in 10 vintages proves him right.
As our range illustrates, Portugal is “the most exciting wine place on the planet” says Wine Spectator. And Amoras is one of the country’s best-value finds. It has a port-like richness, silky smooth texture and real drinkability.
Portugal’s Touriga Nacional is key to port but also makes gorgeous, fruit-rich table wines. The esteemed Freitas family won Gold with this wine's launch and have been impressing customers since, reeling in awards for its velvety, spiced flavours.
The secret to this wine’s luscious weight and fruit-packed splendour is the sandy soils, which hold little rain for the vines, plus the unrelenting hot sun of the Setúbal Península.
