The Cartuxa winery is owned by the Eugenio de Almeida Foundation. A privately funded charity founded in 1963. Cartuxa gets its name from the Cartuxa Monastery, where the Carthusian Monks lived in silence and prayed since 1598! Cartuxa Tinto is a classic red from the Alentejo region, pronounced from Alicante Bouschet, Aragonez and Trincadeira, the wine matures in French oak barrels and oak vats for 12 months.
On the nose this is cherry and red fruit with a touch of vanilla. The palate evolves over time and the longer it is on the palate, it is rather fruit forward with a good amount of oak and has a long finish with notes of mocha and licorice.
