Smells of warm blackberry scone.

Starts off with kirsch, artichoke amaro, hint of licorice, horehound, mint. Was hoping this would be better at the price point, as you don’t see many 100% touringa nacional in the states.

Another terrific example of why the dry table wines of Portugal should be on your radar in 2017.

Full-bodied and deep color. Assertive tannins without being overpowering. Hints of spice and dark fruit.
