"A classic Douro blend of Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca and Tinta Roriz (Tempranillo), this hand harvested red has been matured in 100% French Oak barrels for 9 months, resulting in a wonderful balance of bold dark fruit and smooth tannins. You’d be hard-pressed to find better Douro at this price."
