Wine from Ribatejo
Filter
Until 2009, Ribatejo was a wine region in Portugal. After that time it became known as the Tejo region. Ribatejo covers the same areas as the province of Ribatejo getting its name from the Tejo River. The entire area uses the Vinho Regional designation. The river was renamed in order to increase the international reputation of Ribatejo.
The DOC has retained the name Ribatejo, which removed the old problem of having the identical name applied to wines with two different classification levels. Ribatejo was hit extremely hard by the 1974 revolution. When this occurred, some winemakers didn’t do so well, while others were completely displaced.
Located between the Alentejo VRs and the Lisboa, the Tagus river dominates the region, the river is responsible for the climate of the region which makes it much more temperate and fertile than other regions in Portugal.
The vineyards in Ribatejo are planted in the fertile plains along the river in the alluvial soil. The region is also known for producing an abundance of crops. Wine making in Portugal dates back to Roman times when the winemakers in the region exported their reds and whites all over Europe. By the end of the 13th century, Ribatejo shipped almost 60,000 barrels of wine to England every year.

A very deep purple, red in color. This wine showcases Shiraz with its depth of Barossa Valley and the alluring, aromatic freshness of Eden Valley. Vibrant aromas of dark cherries, anise and red raspberry. A distinctive wine with richness and dark berry, fruit compote palate. Perfectly balanced, elegant and refined.
Enjoy with beef filet, roast beetroot and horseradish, or Korean fried cauliflower.
This blend of Barossa Valley (67%) and Eden Valley fruit hails from five parcels averaging 80 years old, the oldest planted in 1854. Intensely concentrated in hue and muscular flavour. Spicy and mineral to the nose and palate, with glimpses of violets. Its iodine and liquorice-edged black cherry and blueberry flavour is succulent, but still in the grip of the sinewy, charry oak, making for an imposing, slightly austere finish. A powerhouse.

Saturated ruby. Heady aromas of ripe dark berries, cherry liqueur, vanilla and incense, with smoky mineral and exotic spice accents building in the glass. Seamless in texture and deeply concentrated, offering palate-staining black and blue fruit, floral pastille and mocha flavors that turn sweeter with air. At once plush and lively, finishing extremely long and smoky, with repeating dark berry and floral notes and velvety tannins.

Cavalier Dario Barolo Riserva 2016 is made from Nebbiolo.
This is the flagship of the Cavalier Dario house — a Barolo held back for the extended aging a Riserva demands and released only once it has begun to soften and open. In the glass it shows the deep garnet Nebbiolo takes on with time, with an aromatic profile the estate calls fresh, complex and austere, and a palate that is warm and supple with the balance that separates a serious Barolo from a merely powerful one. A wine for the table: braised beef, game, aged Piedmontese cheeses and slow Sunday cooking.
