In reality, this wine is an ode to the former Portuguese princess Catarina of Braganza. Born in 1638 and married to Charles II of England. The well-established and very modern wine house Bacalhôa Vinhos is located in the wine region of Terras do Sado, in the south of Portugal. Besides being very large, they are also extremely innovative. Passion for wine is paramount here. Their motto is: 'Taking Portugal to the World; one wine glass at a time. '

Very deep color, very rich and concentrated in the aromas. Red fruit tones combined with shades of vanilla, well integrated in a sturdy and elegant structure. Complex and long aftertaste. A red wine with a long storage potential

Food pairing

The Catarina Tinto is the ideal wine to be shared at the table or in the evening. Very versatile at the gastronomic level and can be combined with a huge variety of dishes, such as tapas, pastas, red and white meat dishes

Grapes: 60% Castelão & 40% Alicante Bouschet

The two varieties were vinified separately. 50% of the wine has aged 6 months in new French oak barrels. Castelão and Alicante Bouschet find the ideal terroir in the low-production vineyards of Palmela sandy soil, for rich, full, spicy and complex wines
