Stones & Bones (3-Litre Box) 2019

Rich, velvety Stones & Bones is so-called because it’s grown in a landscape littered with ancient boulders and dinosaur fossils. In the modern Portuguese tradition, the wine is a blend of local and international grapes. Touriga Nacional, the backbone of vintage port, joins with Tinta Roriz, Syrah and Alicante to produce mammoth, rich fruit flavours. It's from the Casa Santos Lima estate, founded in the 19th century and now in the hands of the third and fourth generations, granddaughter and great grandson, Maria João Santos Lima and José Luís Santos Lima Oliveira da Silva. This is quality wine in a box – handy for enjoying a glass or two, while the remainder stays fresh in the container. Lighter than glass also makes it more sustainable.
