In an area known for its population of Cistercian monks, Rodrigo Martins' winery in Alcobaca is called Espera, or wait in English, and that's what he typically does with his grapes and subsequent wines, allowing each vintage and blend to choose its own path. Palheto is a mash-up of a dozen or so red and white grapes, all co-fermented with skins on and aged for an unhurried 7 months in old French barrels. #chillablered
