Cabeças do Reguengo Luar Tinto is a delightful red wine that captures the essence of Portugal’s winemaking heritage. This wine is sourced from a blend of five centenary vineyards nestled in the Serra de São Mamede, where old vines produce grapes of exceptional character and depth.
Harvested manually at the end of August, the grapes are vinified using traditional and natural methods. Fermentation occurs in cement tanks with wild yeasts, followed by a three-week maceration period that enhances the wine’s color and tannic structure. After fermentation, the wine is aged for 12 months in old barrels and cement vats, allowing it to develop its nuanced flavors while retaining its bright fruit profile. Bottled without fining or filtration, Luar Tinto is a pure and authentic expression of its terroir.
The result is a medium-bodied red wine with juicy acidity (4.8 g/L) and a silky texture, complemented by a modest alcohol level of 12.2%. Its vibrant and refreshing profile makes it perfect for pairing with roasted vegetables, grilled meats, or Mediterranean dishes. Limited to just 3,060 bottles, Luar Tinto is a gastronomic red that is as versatile as it is distinctive.
