One of the great wines of the Douro that while mostly available and at a great price, flies under the radar of most people that would love this wine.

Dark ruby red core with red edges. Beautiful nose, medium to full bodied, elegant red fruits, cherry, sauve tannins, with good acidity, long and persistent vintage. Classy wine.

Attractive aromas of plum, apple, and crimson rose. Tart fruit mellows with undertones of smoked meat. Brilliant pairing with slow cooked chicken.
