Aluado is a full-bodied red wine with complex dark berry and baking spice aromas. The palate offers great structure, ripe tannins and rich flavors of plums, blackberry, coffee and cinnamon.

Pair with pork, hearty stews (with or without meat), sausage, braised red meats.

The Alicante Bouschet grapes grow at winemaker José Neiva's Quinta do Porto Franco estate, 40 miles north of Lisbon. Here, he keeps a watchful eye on the vineyards, where plenty of sun and cooling Atlantic breezes help grapes ripen slowly, boosting the development of aromatic and flavor complexity. In the cellar, José gives the wine just a touch of oak aging, for lightly toasty finesse.
