Terra d'Alter 2021 Expressao Tinto (Alentejo)
Unexpectedly lively for such a “southern” wine, the peppery spice of Peter’s beloved Syrah beautifully perking up the juiciness of the two indigenous grapes. Better wine cannot be found at this price! Expressão is the new name given to the estate’s “basic” wines.
