Tasting Note

It offers fresh, juicy red berry fruit and wonderful fresh acidity, framed by ripe grippy tannins from the careful use of high-quality oak. Look for the distinctive slatey mineral cut on the long fresh finish.

In The Press

Irish Examiner

Tolo do Xisto means ‘Mad About Schist’ (a nod to their soils), aromatic and fruity with black cherry, cranberry and black pepper. Bright, juicy and floral with some brusque acidity and freshness making this complex but also a rather joyously easy drinker.
