Stones & Bones (3-Litre Box) 2019
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 Wine
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.
