Soft, dusty-textured wine that shows blackberry and black currant fruit flavors, along with a dry, firm core of tannins. The edge initially shows some bitterness, but then the wood comes through. Drink now or until 2010.

. For a hot country white wine, this is deliciously fresh. Based on the Arinto grape, the wine’s floral aromas, flavors of ripe apricots and fresh aftertaste just burst out of the glass. Oenologist João Portugal Ramos also makes his own wines in the Alentejo.

A full, ripe vanilla- and strawberry-flavored wine that hits the spot for the summer, with an emphasis on dryness, but with a soft, fruity, food-friendly aftertaste.

A blend of Touriga Nacional and Syrah, fresh, fruity, with ripe strawberries and cream flavors. There is just a touch of tannin and a good dose of fresh acidity. Attractive and crisp. Screwcap.

The leg here refers to the red-legged partridge which is native to southern Portugal. The wine is certainly red enough, a blend of Aragonês and Shiraz (they use the Australian spelling). It is firm, richly tannic, attractively full of rich berry, plum and spice.

Opulently rich and velvet, this is a dense and very concentrated wine. It has the tannins, but they are almost overwhelmed by gorgeous ripe fruit, with sweet spices and acidity. Drink now.

A bright, purple-colored wine, packed with vivid red fruits. The tannins give a toasty, spicy character as well as picking up on tight fruits. There is a fine, ripe feel to this wine, which finishes fresh, fruity and concentrated.

This maturing version of the Conde de Vimioso, reveals old-fashioned, tarry, licorice flavors that are well balanced and enjoyable. A blend of Trincadeira, Aragonês, Touriga Nacional and Cabernet Sauvignon, it seems to be dominated by the first two, warm southern grapes, which give a generous, ripe character and a rich aftertaste. Imported by Aidil Wines & Liquor Inc.
