Stones & Bones 2022

With 11 Golds in seven vintages and Trophy in 2020 for 'Best Portuguese Red', Stones & Bones is a winner. The name is a reference to the ancient boulders and dinosaur fossils that litter the vineyards around the estate where it’s made – a family-owned winery, which was awarded 'Best Producer of Portugal' at Germany's prestigious competitions, Mundus Vini 2021 and Berliner Wein Trophy 2020. Their credentials for making this rich, old-vine Portuguese red are second to none. This is a gorgeous blend of local and international grapes, where Touriga Nacional, the backbone of vintage port, joins forces with Syrah, Tinta Roriz and Alicante to produce mammoth, rich fruit flavours. Best decant and serve with a hearty casserole, at a barbecue or with firm cheeses.
