The Alentejo reading

Alentejo's warm plains grow wines of dark fruit density and alcohol warmth—reds built on Aragonez and Trincadeira that move toward ripe plum and pepper, whites increasingly restrained in the cooler microclimates where producers are learning to age their amphora-fermented Antão Vazes with restraint.
