Tasting Notes: Like many traditional Ports, Touriga Nacional is the foundation of this wine. Blackish-purple in color, this grape provides flavors of earth and spice. Souzao, also deeply pigmented, pulls ripe, dark fruit aromas from the glass. In the mouth, the ripe, spicy fruit evolves to anise and clove with a rich mid palate. Tinta Roriz brightens the intensity with red fruit flavors and a well-balanced acidic backbone. Finally, the Bastardo completes this blend offering a prolonged finish of white pepper and exotic spice. Food Pairings: Sharp cheddar cheese, bleu cheese, dried fruit, unsalted nuts,
dark chocolate, prosciutto.
