Encostas Trogão Reserve Red 2015

Adega Cooperativa do Rabaçal is a cooperative winery located in the Trás-os-Montes region of northern Portugal, specifically in the parish of Rebordelo, Bragança district. Situated in the high-altitude, continental climate of the Planalto Mirandês sub-region (part of Trás-os-Montes DOC), it unites local grape growers to produce authentic regional wines, including reds, whites, and rosés. The winery emphasizes native grape varietieso, crafting balanced, expressive wines that reflect the rugged terroir – characterized by granite soils, significant temperature variations, and low rainfall. Known for quality and tradition, Adega Cooperativa do Rabaçal produces approachable yet structured wines, such as its Reserva reds with notes of ripe dark fruits, spices, and firm tannins. It represents the cooperative spirit of rural Portugal, supporting family vineyards and promoting the lesser-known Trás-os-Montes appellation.
