3 x Casa Santos Lima Rabo de Galo Tinto 2016 (Portugal)

Awarded Blue Gold Medal & Top 100: Sydney International Wine Competition 2018

Awarded Gold Medal: Mundus Vini 2017

This award-winning wine, from award-winning producer Casa Santos Lima, comes from the Portuguese region of Lisboa (Lisbon), characterised by its sunny slopes and proximity to the ocean. It is a full-bodied, fruit-rich and smooth wine, and for those who are interested this beauty is a blend of Castelão, Touriga Nacional, Tinta Roriz & Trincadeira, all native varieties of Portugal. Rich, bold smooth red, perfect for the coming winter months.

3 x Casa Santos Lima Red Blend Portugal Tinto 2016 (Portugal)

Awarded Blue Gold Medal & Top 100: Sydney International Wine Competition 2018

Awarded Gold Medal: Berliner Wein Trophy 2018

Awarded Gold Medal: Selections Modiales des Vins 2018

Awarded Gold Medal: Asia Wine Trophy 2018

Portuguese winemakers are masters at blending different grapes, and this wine is seen as a homage to their skills. Bringing together a range of Portuguese and international varieties, the wine is smooth, structured and richly tannic. It has great acidity to balance the black fruits. Delicious drinking!

3 x Vale Perdido Vinho Tinto 2016 (Portugal)

Awarded Gold Medal: Concours Mondial de Bruxelles 2018

Awarded Gold Medal: China Wines & Spirits Awards 2017

Awarded Gold Medal: Cathay Pacific Wines & Spirit Competition 2017

Aromas of ripe blackberry and raspberry fruit. Spicy and fresh on the palate with notes of cinnamon, chocolate and clean red fruit flavours with subtle oak that adds richness to the wine. Complex and with a long finish.  A classic portugese blend of Touriga Nacional, Syrah, Camarate, Castelão & Trincadeira – just think soft, smooth rich red!

3 x Cabra Cega Tinto 2016 (Portugal)

Awarded Gold Medal: Portugal Wine Trophy 2018

Awarded Gold Medal: China Wines & Spirits Awards 2017

Highly aromatic notes of ripe black and red fruits. In the mouth, it has a smooth fruity start with concentrated red fruit flavours perfectly balanced with oak notes and a nice acidity. The fresh, yet fine tannins take over at finish, where flavours of spice and liquorice dominate.  A blend of Touriga Franca, Castelão, Syrah & Tinta Roriz – again, just think richly fruited, smooth as silk red.

wine is much better as the labels. You get a lot for less money...

cris - 14/05/2019

no obvious filler in this mix, the blends allowing each wine to be impressively interesting and not overblown (too ripe/too extracted/too oaky) for the price point

Jon - 14/05/2019

Pleasantly surprised, very nice

These wines amaze me , in colour they look full bodied but are not. They need time to open up ,to breathe before they are enjoyed. As so often is the case blends outshine straight cultivars. Our wine club enjoyed them even against full bodied Tinta Roriz from the Douro

Easy drinking reds. Good matches for my home cooked winter foods, like casseroles, soups etc.

Simon - 17/05/2019

Only had two of these, not bad for the price. Fruit driven, like most wins I have tried form Portugal.

Mike - 16/05/2019

Only tried the Red Blend pleasant wine that slips down very easily looking forward to the others . Pity the Europeans do not want to leave the corks behind just 3 of 12 have the sensible screw cap.
