I've had a number of Portuguese wines and they've all been great value for the money. This one may have been €7 (which is very cheap for wine where I live) and it's a screw top, but it's quite full bodied, with notes of dark fruits, chocolate and vanilla thanks to having been matured for 6 months in French oak casks.

When it comes to Portuguese wines, I read that the more of the grapes you don't recognize, the better. This one is 40% castelão, 40% aragonez and 20% touriga nacional so it ticks those boxes for someone who usually drinks French or Italian wines.
