A blend of Touriga Nacional (40%) and equal parts Tinta Roriz and Touriga Franca, this is a deeply-flavored yet quite sophisticated red, with excellent balance and a firm structure. It tastes of dark summer fruits (think plums), with a spicy accent in the finish and a well-integrated hint of wood. Delicious, and at an attractive price to boot!
