The most emblematic Portuguese grape, already mentioned in the 19th Century by Baron Joseph James de Forrester as “the finest”. In addition to its violet colour, Touriga Nacional has an excellent aromatic expression, which, combined with its structure and freshness, has made it a peerless varietal not only in Portugal, but also abroad. The vineyards that produce the grapes for this wine are spread across a stunning geometric backdrop of terraces built by hand in the schist typical of the region. In the heart of the sub-region of Cima Corgo, these terraces are built on rocky soil, face south and are at an altitude of 300m. Intense, deep ruby-red colour. Nose Very attractive, intense, fine and fragrant. Red and black ripe fruits stand out from the word go, followed by floral notes supported by spicy nuances. Smooth and silky palate from the outset. Polished and elegant tannins. Typically dense and robust, with an explosion of fruit mid palate. Persistent and compact finish.
