Structured, elegant reds with a deep ruby robe, fine tannins and fresh acidity, featuring aromas of red fruits, black cherry, spices, dried flowers and balsamic notes. Very good ageing and oxidative maturation capacity. An essential component of great vintage Porto (one of the five classic recommended grapes) and dry reds of Douro DOC.

The word of the wine: Unbalanced
Said of a wine whose different elements are not perceived in a harmonious and pleasant way. This is not necessarily a defect, it can be a wine that is too young and not yet blended.
