The history of Tapada do Chaves dates back to the beginning of the 20th century, when the Chaves family planted the first vines on the slopes of Serra de São Mamede in their small tapada, starting a relationship of passion and dedication to the land. Located in the parish of Frangoneiro, on the outskirts of Portalegre, Tapada do Chaves has been in existence for over a century and has taken on a prominent role in the creation of the demarcated region in the Alentejo with its wines of protected origin. In Tapada do Chaves there are two of the oldest vineyard plots in Alentejo, in production, with records in 1901 for the red vine and in 1903 for the white vine. With 60 hectares of land and 32 of wine-growing heritage, the tapada is located on a granite massif and at a generous altitude, in an area strongly influenced by the orography and the agroforestry cover, in a microclimate that is decisive for the quality and typicality of the wines produced there. . It is a unique place for its heritage and potential.

Concentrated ruby color, with a very complex aroma, soft balsamics appear alongside forest notes, with black fruit, rock rose, earth and a vibrant vegetable. In the tasting it is concentrated and deep, with a high structure, with present and extremely elegant tannins. Fruit, minerality and balanced acidity provide a very long and persistent finish, full of character.
