This 2023 red from Poças in Portugal’s Douro Valley is a blend of Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca, Tinta Roriz, and Tinta Barroca, the classic grapes of the region. Deep ruby in color, it offers aromas of ripe black cherry, blackberry, and violet, with a touch of spice and gentle mineral notes.
The palate is fresh and well balanced, with juicy fruit, supple tannins, and a pleasant, lingering finish. It pairs wonderfully with grilled meats, roasted chicken, hearty pasta dishes, and aged cheeses. Approachable yet distinctly Douro, it is an excellent choice for everyday enjoyment or relaxed gatherings.
