This expressive Portuguese red, made from 100% Touriga Nacional, embodies the depth and soul of the country’s winemaking tradition. Deep garnet in color, it reveals aromas of dark berries and ripe jam, layered with earthy, peppery undertones. The palate is smooth and full of character, with a balanced structure and a hint of fresh vanilla from barrel aging. Medium-bodied and dry, it pairs beautifully with grilled lamb, herb-roasted pork, duck breast with berry sauce, or rich game dishes, showcasing the bold yet refined nature of Portugal’s signature grape.

    Wow!

    "When I opened this, I took a long sniff before tasting and was reminded of the bouquet of a good port. I then looked it up and found that this is pretty much the premiere grape for ports from Portugal. I have to admit, I was rather proud of my amateur wine-sniffing nose. :) This, of course, is not a port, but WOW, it is excellent! I truly enjoyed it with a simple charcuterie, but I can imagine it would be excellent, as the tasting notes suggest, with an herb-crusted pork tenderloin. I'm going to try to keep a couple of bottles on hand for as long as I can find it here."
