"Dense ruby, mahogany, with yellow-green rim, just beginning to coat the glass; the bouquet grew and opened out, a rich symphony of aromas like crÚme brûlée and roasted nuts; very concentrated and sweet, but with good balancing acidity; powerful and persistent finish. A reference wine."

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.
