Tasting notes:
This Zambujeiro Land appears opulent, rich and with a deep and beautiful bouquet. It has seductive notes of violets and wild flower notes, black and red berries, graphite and vanilla notes. It is slightly soft and creamy in the mouth sustained by typical fine tannins. The persistence of the fruit is excellent as usual. If stored at 15ºC will improve over the next 10 years.

All meat dishes, pasta or alone.
Serve at 15-17ºC.
