Get to know: Vila Jardim Selection Red

Tasting Note

2 bottles of this fantastic Portuguese Red for £20

A taste of central Portugal from one of the oldest wine producing regions in the country. This is a spicy and rich red blend with a nice depth of flavour. Blackcurrant, plum, blackberry, a peppery spice. The palate is rich and rounded with 6 months of oak providing texture and leading to a finish with good length and gentle tannins. If you like a bold and spicy wine, this is for you.

Try this with grilled beef, Portuguese Stone Soup or a smoky bean chilli.

"This is a very tasty drop with lots of rich, spicy fruit and a soft texture. The name translates as Garden Village and we were impressed by the authentic quality of fruit and winemaking. Very good value. I'd enjoy this at a BBQ"

Producer Info

Vila Jardim wines are made by Quinta Vale do Armo overlooking the curves of the Tagus River, an exceptional terroir of exposed vineyards inspired by the delicacy of this wine region. Vale do Armo is thus a brand of true Tagus wines shaped by a temperate Climate, clay-limestone soils and an altitude of 150-250m above seas-level, resulting in wines with a very fruity and smooth character.

As part of the Lindeborg group, Quinta Vale do Armo has a focus on sustainability in all aspect of their business and is in the process of converting to organic production.

In 2005, the estate underwent a modernization process in agriculture with the introduction of national and international grape varieties, the use of sustainable techniques that respect nature and biodiversity. Two years later, with the construction of the winery, it reflected the owner’s desire to produce a proprietary brand that would become one of the main products of the municipality of Sardoal, adopting the same affectionate reference “Vila Jardim,” as the streets and houses of the town are always adorned with flowers, as a hallmark of wines from the Tejo region.
