In Extremis Vinho Regional Lisboa Red 2019
About the wine
A mouthwatering blend of classic Portuguese grapes and delicious Syrah from the master of silky-smooth reds
-
Naked legend Hermano Veloso has turned silky-smooth Portuguese red blends into an art form and In Extremis is his latest masterpiece, a mouthwatering combo of home-grown grapes - Castelao and Touriga Nacional - and punchy Syrah that’s overflowing with fruity flavour.
-
This rich and juicy red tempts you in with aromas of lush cherries, blackberries and a hint of licorice, all of which intensifies in the mouth, with an extra dab of vanilla from oak ageing and a gorgeously lengthy finish.
-
If you’ve never tried one of Hermano’s wines before, this little stunner is the best place to start. It’s the perfect easy-drinking red to enjoy with cheesy pastas, BBQs, spicy asian food, or simply on its own. Whatever floats your boat.

Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Hermano Veloso
- Hermano was discovered by your Archangels at the London International Wine Fair 2011 and his wines have taken pride of place on Angel wine racks ever since (those Archangels know a good thing when they taste it).
- Having been born and raised in the Portuguese wine industry, there is nothing this man doesn't know about how to get the best from the local grapes! In fact, his family have been working in Lisbon's wine and agriculture for generations, a tradition that Hermano was keen to continue... his first harvest was when he was only six years old!
- With his passion for Portuguese wines & drive to make top quality wines whilst keeping them great value for money, we couldn't wait to add him to the list of Naked winemakers
