WineDiva's Review

Rustic, firm, weighty.
Made from a blend of indigenous Portuguese varieties: Touriga Nacional, Alfrocheiro, Tinta-Roriz, Jaen, this rustic but weighty red offers spiced wild black fruit and dried flowers, leather and tealeaf aromas. Grippy and firm it holds great appeal for a similarly rustic meat dishes, spaghetti Bolognese, hearty bean stews, or grilled portobello mushrooms.

Recommended Pairings
Rich Meats , Barbeque, Cheese - Hard/Aged
