Encostas serpa Encostas serpa syrah 2022

A dry red wine from Portugal, made with Syrah from the 2022 vintage. A quick word on the grape: Syrah is a bold red grape producing dark, full-bodied wines with blackberry, black-pepper and smoky, savory notes; it is known as Shiraz in Australia. Portugal is a goldmine of native grapes, from the zippy whites of the green northwest to the muscular reds and legendary Ports of the Douro Valley. This is your steak-night, lamb-roast, hearty-stew kind of red. Serve it at cool room temperature.
