Caves Velhas, Dão DOC (Portugal) 2020

Oct 11, 2022

By Rich Cook

 Here’s a budget priced red blend that will please fans of bold red wine aromas and flavors.  Mixed berries and nutmeg spice aromas translate well into palate flavors, with mouth filling texture, a dash of oak char and a little white pepper.  The finish has good length and push, with a tarry note coming forward to brighten the fruit. This is made for grilled beef.  Contains 50% Tinta Roriz, 30% Afrocheiro and 20% Touriga Nacional.
