Sobroso Red Reserva 2019 - Alentejo
In 1519, King D. Manuel I bestowed the title of Count of Vidigueira onVasco da Gama. It would be in the calmness of this pretty little Alentejo town, set amongst the vast golden plains, cork trees, olive trees and vineyards that the man that discovered the sea route to India would live happily with his family for some years.
Herdade do Sobroso is set into this unique landscape that is replete with historical reminiscences and heritage, now strongly influenced by its proximity to the largest artificial lake in Europe, the Alqueva Dam.
Amid its 1600 hectares, Herdade do Sobroso merges its wine production with the pleasures of its surroundings and nature, operating as a leisure centre. Located in Vidigueira, Alentejo, Herdade do Sobroso is bordered by the Mendro mountain range to the north, the River Guadiana to the east and to the south is a vast plain that stretches as far as the eye can see.
It is here, amongst the harmonious geography that the rich land has settled and it is within these surroundings that the winery is found.
The space where modernity and functionality meets in an indelible way, producing wine of unparalleled quality.
