Horká léta Alenteja usnadňují zrání, a sladkým hroznům propůjčují bohatou ovocnou chuť s plným tělem. Červená vína z Alenteja jsou vyrobena ze směsi odrůd hroznů jako například T, A (známé také jako TR nebo T). Relativně nízký podíl tříslovin umožňuje podávat tato vína celkem snadno k mnoha různým druhům pokrmů. Hodí se ke zvěřině, jehněčímu, hovězímu, vepřovému, uzeninám, přírodně upraveným masům, ale i k masům s rozličnými hustými omáčkami. Alentejo hot summers make ripening easy, and sweet grapes mean rich fruit and lots of body. Alentejo rich, round and full-bodied reds are made from a variable blend of grape varieties, including Trincadeira, Aragonês (also known as Tinta Roriz or Tempranillo), Alicante Bouschet, Syrah, Touriga Nacional and Cabernet Sauvignon. They may be inexpensive, rich, round and full, or very expensive, even richer, dense, and oak-aged, but still with a certain opulence and easy-drinking charm. Relatively low tannin makes these wines quite easy to pair with food, but the food flavours need to be equally big if they are not to be overcome by the wine. Game, lamb, beef, pork, offal, charcuterie, plainly cooked meats or richly sauced meats, all can work well with this style of red wine. Touriga Nacional (so long as it is not too heavily oaked) is particularly wonderful with beef, as is Aragonês with lamb, especially lamb flavoured with thyme. |
