The 2022 Cartuxa Vinho de Talha Tinto was produced with grapes from Quinta de Valbom, which has been organic for over 15 years. It's a blend of 40% Aragonez, 35% Trincadeira and 25% Alicante Bouschet with a contained 13.5% alcohol; it fermented and matured in 19th century amphorae (talha) for six months. It's sleek, nuanced and polished, with a soft mouthfeel and fine tannins, medium-bodied and with clean and juicy flavors in the finish. 5,500 bottles produced. It was bottled in June 2024.
Fundacao Eugenio de Almeida Adega Cartuxa is a non-profit organization led by a board in order to continue the philanthropic nature of founder Vasco Maria Eugénio de Almeida. It was established in Évora back in 1963 and is one of the traditional names in Alentejo. The Eugénio de Almeida Foundation also relies on the scientific community. Through agreements established with the University of Évora and other institutions, it has been possible to carry out significant technical-scientific partnerships, which began in the mid-1980s
