2021 Estate Souzão, Lost Pirogue Vineyard

2021 Estate Souzão, Lost Pirogue Vineyard

Native to the challenging terrain of Portugal, Souzão thrives in the Texas Hill Country where a single acre of vines produces this assertive and complex wine. Souzão is one of only a few teinturier grape varieties which means the flesh is red instead of clear like most wine grapes, producing deep, dark, inky wines.
