Setúbal Peninsula, Central and Southern Portugal, PortugalDefinition of value? This at less than a tenner on private liquor shop shelves shows, again, the value in Portuguese wines. From Setúbal Peninsula, this is a regional blend of castelão, trincadeira and aragonez, exuberantly rustic, with gutsy black plum, leathery blackcurrant and gritty/tuggy tannins to the spicy finish. This is not some sweet dumbed down marketing wine, but rather an authentically rustic and honest simple gutsy red for casseroles or stews.
