Production Notes
The grapes are handpicked from sustainably farmed vineyards and carefully sorted before vinification. Fermentation occurs in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks to preserve vibrant fruit aromas, followed by gentle maceration to extract colour and tannins. The wine matures for several months in a combination of stainless steel and neutral oak vats to develop texture and integration before bottling.
Tasting Notes
Deep ruby red in colour, the wine opens with aromas of ripe blackberries, cherries, and plums, supported by subtle notes of spice, vanilla, and dried herbs. The palate is smooth and generous, displaying layers of dark fruit, cocoa, and hints of licorice balanced by polished tannins and a touch of minerality. The finish is long, warm, and satisfying, showcasing the harmony typical of Alentejo reds.
Food Pairings
Perfect alongside grilled meats, roast lamb, pasta with rich tomato sauces, or aged cheeses.

The History of Chiswick Wines
Chiswick Wine — A Neighbourhood Wine Venture with Heart
Born from the passion of two wine enthusiasts, Chiswick Wine is more than just a bottle shop. It is the result of five years of dreaming, planning, and sourcing with purpose. Our founders left their careers to create something that would bring people together, support sustainability, and celebrate the beauty of honest wine making.
Every detail of Finchley Wine reflects that vision. The space is thoughtfully designed with an organic, natural aesthetic and shelves filled with handpicked bottles from producers who care for their land as much as their craft. We call it wine design, a blend of taste, community, and creativity that turns every visit into an experience.
At Chiswick Wine, you will find not only distinctive wines but also a welcoming space built on connection, sustainability, and local spirit.
