Tussock Jumper Red Blend
A rich red blend from Portugal
Tussock Jumper Red Blend brings together the character of Alentejo with a smooth, modern style that is easy to enjoy and memorable from the first sip. Grown in clay and schist soils with magnesium-rich sedimentary clay-loam, this Portuguese red shows depth, balance, and personality. The grapes are harvested at night to help preserve freshness and aromatic intensity, and part of the wine matures for six months in French and American oak before bottling. As a result, the wine develops a rounded texture, layered flavor, and appealing complexity.
Tasting notes and style
This red blend offers a generous aroma of wood fruits, white flowers, chocolate, and coconut, creating an inviting bouquet that stands out immediately. On the palate, it feels well-balanced and rounded, with a rich taste and a smooth finish. The blend is made from 75% Aragonez and 25% Touriga, which gives it both ripe fruit expression and elegant structure. With 13.5% alcohol, total acidity of 3.6 g/L, and residual sugar of 7.6 g/L, it delivers harmony and approachability without losing its wine character.
Perfect food pairings
Tussock Jumper Red Blend is a versatile choice for everyday meals and relaxed gatherings. It pairs beautifully with pizza, white meats such as chicken and turkey, and soft cheeses. Because of its smooth profile and balanced finish, it also works well with grilled dishes and simple Mediterranean plates. Serve it slightly cool, ideally at 64°F to 18°C, to enjoy its freshness and aromatic depth at their best.
