Stones & Bones 3 litre Wine Box 2021
Vinho Regional de Lisboa
Loading...
A fabulous, spicy fruit red combining native varieties with Syrah. Velvety, mouthfilling and long, it perfectly shows how modern Portuguese reds offer some of the best value in Europe. So handy, too, in this ‘help yourself to a glass’ format.
We're sorry, this wine is sold out.
But don't worry, you'll find plenty more handpicked wines here.

The Story Behind the Bottle
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, France’s Syrah (now quite at home in Portugal) and native Portuguese Alicante, to produce mammoth, rich fruit flavours, all velvety and smooth. The winemaker at Casa Santos Lima today is Vasco Martins – he has all the credentials for making this rich, old-vine Portuguese red. This is quality wine in a box – handy for enjoying a glass or two, while the remainder stays fresh inside. Soft enough on its own, it’ll also partner a warming casserole or cheese.
