Elaboration

HDL Amphora is an organic Portuguese red wine made from Syrah, Touriga Nacional, Aragonez and Alicante Bouschet. Harvested from old vines in Herdade dos Lagos, the grapes are crushed with their feet, and the fermentation takes place spontaneously in "talha" (indigenous yeasts). After the alcoholic fermentation is over, the wine stays in contact with the "mother" (pasta) for 8 months. The wine is aged in old French oak until bottling.

Taster´s notes

Faded red. It has fresh aromas, a hint of pepper and a slight hint of clay. At the tasting we discover a fine tannin, freshness and balanced acidity, you can feel the minerality from the clay. We recommend combining wine with rich and fatty meats. We suggest a serving temperature of 16ºC.

Forty years ago the Zeppenfeld-Kreikenbaum family built the winery, in the Valley of the Camels (Vale de Camelos). They are a german family who fell in love with the Portuguese landscapes, and they decided to make excellent wines from the denomination of origin Alentejo. They own 1000 hectares of completely organic vineyards, as they are highly committed to the sustainability of winemaking.
