What The Fellas Say

It’s like a black cherry dipped in dark chocolate, dusted in nutmeg and clove and eaten slowly while you sink back into an ancient old leather couch with Barry White Wine playing on the turntable. Wrap yourself in these velvety clouds of love and plum juice and fresh cut tobacco leaves and remember that this vintage is only bottled on exceptional years.

What The Sommelier Says

Balanced, classy nose highlighting floral and black fruit aromas, like cherry and plum, wrapped in aromas of balsamic and spice. Silky, lively and complex tannins. Deep, long finish with excellent acidity and elegance.

Pairs well with…

…a roast, bacon-wrapped pheasant, slow-roast lamb chops, and especially the traditional Douro goat stew.

About The Winemakers

Region: Douro

The wines of the Douro Valley are known for their depth, complexity, and aging potential. The soil is predominantly schist, a type of metamorphic rock that retains heat and helps to ripen the grapes. The region’s unique terroir, combined with the use of indigenous grape varieties and traditional winemaking techniques, create wines that are rich, complex, and full of character.
