Description A frequent Gold medal winner 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 forces with Syrah Tinta Roriz and Alicante to produce truly mammoth rich fruit flavours. Equally impressive is the winemaker Diogo Sepúlveda who relaxes after work by cycling or playing football or more unusually bull wrestling! Having worked in Pomerol then in the Barossa with heirloom Shiraz vines his credentials for making this rich old vine Portuguese red are second to none. For maximum enjoyment decant and serve with a rich beef casserole.
