🍇 Bold, Smooth, and Expressively Douro

🍷 In the Glass
Vivid, deep purple with a glossy intensity and youthful vibrancy.
👃 On the Nose
Packed with ripe blackberry, plum, and dark cherry, beautifully framed by subtle oak notes of vanilla, spice, and a touch of toast.
🍽 On the Palate
Round, smooth, and exceptionally well-balanced. Juicy dark fruits lead the way, supported by velvety tannins and a fine thread of acidity. The finish is long, lingering, and refined.
🍽️ Food Pairing
Ideal with grilled meats, braised pork, Iberian-style sausages, or beef stew. Also a great match for aged cheeses and smoky barbecue dishes.

Enjoy now or cellar for 5–7 years to develop further complexity and softness.
