Casa Ermelinda Freitas

The warmth of the Portuguese sun is tempered at Casa Ermelinda thanks to the breezes blowing in from the Atlantic that lies close by. Located at Palmela on the peninsula of Setubal, close to the Sado estuary south of Lisbon, there are currently 440 hectares of many different kinds of vines across the domain, with grapes supplied locally from a further 500ha or so. Head of the company Leonor Freitas has worked tirelessly to make many improvements out in the vineyards and in the winery where modern equipment goes hand in hand with traditional values under the skilled guidance of winemaker Jaime Quendera. Casa Ermelinda Freitas has been run by a long line of dynamic women, celebrating its 100 year anniversary in 2020.

Cracking, rich, herby red plum and raspberry-stashed stainless steel-aged steal.

Medium-bodied and highly quaffable, with flavours and aromas of dark red fruits and a delicious juiciness (cherry and blackberry) this is a bargain-buy. Well-balanced and great value.
