is backordered and will ship as soon as it is back in stock.
What is this wine?
Revela is the personal project of Mariana Salvador, a young Portuguese winemaker making waves with her precise, terroir-driven bottlings. This wine is 100% Alfrocheiro, one of the key red grapes of the Dão region, grown on granite-rich soils at altitude. Alfrocheiro is prized for producing fresh, aromatic reds with both depth and elegance, and Salvador’s version highlights its purity and balance.
Why get this wine?
Portuguese reds are often associated with power, but Alfrocheiro shows the country’s finesse. Salvador’s minimalist winemaking lets the grape shine, yielding a wine that is bright, food-friendly, and excellent value compared to similarly styled Pinot Noir or Gamay from France. It’s a fantastic introduction to one of Portugal’s most underrated varieties.
What does this wine taste like?
Juicy and vibrant, with red cherry, wild berries, and violets, supported by subtle spice and a savory mineral edge. Medium-bodied with fine tannins and lively acidity.
When should you drink this wine?
Delicious young with grilled chicken, pork, charcuterie, or Mediterranean vegetable dishes, but it can develop added complexity over 3–5 years. Serve slightly chilled for extra lift.
