Dão Colheita Encruzado

Made only in exceptional years, an excellent example of the Touriga Nacional grape, medium Ruby with aromas of dark berry fruits, herb and floral spice, aged for 12 months in new and used French oak. On the palate flavors of blackberry and black cherry with notes of cedar, herb and baking spice. Fine ripe tannins, medium+ finish ending with fruit, oak and earthy spice.

Firm yellow colour, great nose of stone fruit and baked apple. Fine, medium bodied palate with good bite, excellent balance and a seductive twist between being rich and fresh. Really interesting, with very good length. This can easily have another few years.
