Portugal has been hailed, by the wine buffs at Wine Spectator, as 'the most exciting wine place on the planet'. Here at Black Market we whole heartly agree! There is incredible value to be found in this region, with deliciously crisp, refreshingly original white wines and rich, robust reds with a heritage of winemaking excellence that goes back centuries!
So exclusively for our members we have put together a selection of Gold Medal wining reds that show case the modern flavoursome red wines of Portugal to introduce you to this fantastic region if you are not already in the know!

This selection includes the following:

2 x Tarambola Vinho Regional Lisboa 2014

AWARDED GOLD MEDAL: Mundus Vini Summer 2016

AWARDED GOLD MEDAL: Austrian Wine Challenge 2016

A delicious blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Touriga Nacional & Syrah.

A wine full of colour and aromatic intensity. In the nose notes of ripe red and black fruits are evident and are well balanced with some chocolate hints and liquorice. A flavoursome wine with a full body, structure and nice complexity. In the mouth notes of plums and blackberries are combined with notes of spices coming from the ageing in French and American oak barrels. The aftertaste is long and persistent.
