Alentejo Red Wine Xico Garcia DOC

Xico Garcia red wine is a Portuguese wine from the Alentejo region, produced by Francisco Garcia Vinhos. Known for its balanced, modern style, it is made primarily from typical Alentejo grape varieties, such as Aragonez, Trincadeira, and Alicante Bouschet, grown in vineyards located in the region's characteristic schist and clay soils.

On the palate, Xico Garcia presents soft tannins and a fruity profile, with notes of ripe red fruits, such as plum and cherry, along with subtle hints of spice and a light touch of wood. This wine is typically aged briefly in oak barrels, giving it additional complexity and good structure. With a smooth and pleasant finish, it's an ideal wine to pair with typical Portuguese dishes, such as grilled meats, sausages, and intensely flavored cheeses.

This wine is generally affordable and designed to be consumed young, providing a genuine and uncomplicated experience of the Alentejo terroir.
