"Vivid ruby-garnet, underlain with orange highlights. Has inviting fruit sweetness, ripe plum notes, and a mineral touch. Sweet, spicy notes with ripe cherry, juicy supporting tannins, and stone fruit nuances in the finish along with orange and white pepper; a delicate wine. Overall not so powerful, but replete with charm."

Best known for fortified Port from the Douro Valley, Portugal also produces distinctive dry reds from native grapes such as Touriga Nacional. Its dramatic terraced vineyards and blending traditions give the wines a singular identity.
Spain's noble red grape, producing structured, savory wines of red fruit and leather that respond beautifully to oak aging in Rioja and Ribera del Duero.
Portugal's finest red grape, giving deeply colored, floral and structured wines central to both Port and the Douro's dry reds.
