José de Sousa 2021: the wisdom of ages to toast on Father’s Day

To honor the best father in the world, Adega José de Sousa suggests the latest harvest of José de Sousa red, an Alentejo wine produced with ancestral techniques that promise to conquer the most demanding palates.

This Alentejo red is produced at Adega José de Sousa, located in the heart of the Alentejo region, which has two wineries with very distinct styles but perfectly combine tradition with innovation: in Adega dos Potes, there are 114 clay amphorae, with an ancient and extremely rare fermentation method, and in the Modern Winery, there are 44 stainless steel tanks with all the indispensable winemaking technology for the production of white and red wines. In this wine, the most traditional and ancient techniques in winemaking are used, such as the use of clay amphorae in grape fermentation and grape stomping by foot.

José de Sousa red 2021 is a blend of Grand Noir (56%), Trincadeira (32%), and Aragonês (12%). Aged for 8 months in French oak barrels, it presents in the glass with a deep red hue and a smoky, spicy aroma that makes it unique. On the palate, it is a wine with very present tannins and a long finish. It is also the perfect pairing for game dishes and cheeses. Awarded nationally and internationally, harvest after harvest, José de Sousa is the perfect choice to celebrate and toast on Father’s Day.
