Head to the remote interior of Portugal and you're in a land seemingly untouched by modern times - and largely overlooked by the rest of the wine world. But we've been swooping in on its rich pickings for years, winning 'Portugal Retailer of the Year' with remarkable wines at great prices. This ripe reserve was made by José Lobo de Vasconcellos (Lobo is Portuguese for wolf) at an estate in central Portugal founded in the 17th century and once the king's falconry. José's ancestors kept special barrels of wine for the king when he visited - and this special edition was partially crafted in traditional lagares to imbue further richness and complexity. Big, powerful flavours make it the perfect choice for slow cooked beef or a game casserole.. Drink By Date - 31/12/2019. Allergens - Sulphites. Alcohol Units: 10.5
