After the phenomenal success of the Vinteiro Douro red it was impossible to resist creating a dialled-up cuvée. The blend here is predominantly Touriga Nacional, a grape that can create big wines but with a natural freshness that offers a balancing refinement too. Complemented by the juicy Touriga Franca and the seasoning from Tinta Roriz, followed by extended maturation in barrel, this red is a beast but a long time in the making, released only when ready to drink. Which is right now.
