The nose is a bit reserved but shows violet bloom with blackberry fruit and graphite/iron notes typical of the Douro....

The "Alto Douro" Wine Region is part of a small elite classified as World Heritage by UNESCO.
Vineyards are planted near the village of "Casal de Loivos" is located at the sub-region of Cima-Corgo, Douro, in schist soil and arranged in terraces.
Lilac notes delight us first, while plum and berries aromas develop as wine matures.
Variety: Touriga Franca 40%, Tinta Barroca 30%, Tinta Roriz 30%
Serve at 17°C. Perfect accompaniment for red meat dishes, such as grilled or roast lamb, steaks and game.
A fairly big, slightly course Douro here. Some floral notes come through on the nose with ripe blackberry fruit on the palate. While no model of refinement, this is quite delicious, especially for summer bb1 season. Fine value. Tasted June 2018.
