Say Olá to your new favourite summer red – this is Pinta Negra made by a winery called Adegamae in Lisbon, Portugal.

This is banging value for money sneaking under the $15 radar (selling elsewhere right now for much more) and delivering a medium bodied, juicy, fruity and deliciously silky smooth red wine that is simply perfect sipping for the warmer months. But heck, this is pure drinkability at its best at a seriously good price so you’ll catch us downing a glass of this anytime of year to be honest!

The wine is a blend of the grape varieties of Aragonez (also known as Tempranillo in neighbouring Spain) and the local Portuguese variety Castelao (pronounced kast-tall-ow). Don’t worry if you haven’t heard of them before – if you’re familiar with any fruit driven style red from Spain like Tempranillo or Garnacha you’ll fall in love with this. There’s no oak aging here – this is all about the vibrant, young fresh fruit flavours from their Lisbon vineyards.

Scoring 91/100 with local critic Sam Kim who said “It’s beautifully fruited and lifted on the nose with blackcurrant, blueberry, rich floral, and mixes spice aromas, followed by a juicy palate that’s smooth and rounded. Attractively styled with balanced tannins, finishing lingering and silky”.

Pair it with grilled or barbecued red meats, pastas or summer salads.
