Monte Bluna Reserva Red 2018

Lawyer and wine enthusiast António Guerreiro has worked with enthusiastic winemaker Nuno Martins to revolutionize the Arruda dos Vinhos region. In a beautiful hillside vineyard with Jurassic limestone and clay-limestone soils with incredible potential, they achieve excellent freshness and tension in their wines. The 6 hectares of production are farmed sustainably, and the focus is on delivering the best Aragonez in the country, from an old vineyard, as well as expressions full of character from the region's native or typical grape varieties, approved by the Arruda DOC: Arinto and Vital, Tinta Miúda and Syrah.
