About the wine
This intensely fruity, mouth-filling red is a single-vineyard Portuguese powerhouse
- This primo Portuguese red is flush with rich, ripe flavors of luscious raspberries, cherries and a dash of savory pepper gliding on a melt-in-your-mouth smoothness that leads into a powerful, luxuriously long-lasting finish.
- Your support helped Oscar and Claudia start with top-notch Touriga Franca for the lush, fruitier side of this powerhouse red blend and then couple it with the spicy boldness of world-class Tempranillo – all sourced from a single vineyard in the heart of the world-famous Douro Valley they call home.
- The Quevedo family owns the idyllic vineyard where these grapes grow, and they personally give the vines the utmost attention throughout the growing season to bring you this layered, complex red that showcases the best of what Portuguese wines have to offer. Get a bottle while they last and see for yourself!
Best before
Enjoy this red now on its powerful side or let it develop a few more subtle flavors over the next 5 years. You really want to enjoy it when the fruit expresses its full character though.
Serving advice
Don't serve it too warm, around 60ºF is the recommended temperature. You can let it breathe for an hour before serving if you want the tannins to be smoother.
Food match
This wine wants meat! Cured meat or grilled BBQ meat like pork belly, marinated lamb chops, ribs. For vegetarians, a portobello mushrooms burger would be a nice fit!
Contains sulphites
