The vines grow between Vidigueira and Cuba in the Baixo Alentejo, on sandy-clay soils. The grapes are fermented with stems in traditional clay amphorae, without added yeasts; the wine is then matured for three months in the amphorae. It shows ripe red and dark fruit, lively acidity, firm, sandy-feeling tannins and a rather light to medium body. Plum and redcurrant appear on the finish. Amphora vinification with spontaneous fermentation is its defining feature.
