M.O.B, Lote 3, Dão, Tinto, 2023

Supple Red Wine from Dão, Portugal’s Hidden Gem

"Red cherries with a floral touch with dried flowers, violets. The palate is tender, with supple tannins, a gentle thread of dark cherries and fresh finish. This is a blend of touriga nacional, jaen and afroncheiro. Drink now or hold."
✍️ James Suckling 

• Blend of Alfrocheiro, Jaen, Touriga nacional
• Aged 12 months in used oak barrels

STORY BEHIND THE WINE

M.O.B. is located in the Serra d'Estrela district of eastern Dão. This daring joint venture is named for the three talented winemakers behind it all: Jorge Moreira of Poeira, Francisco Olazabal from Quinta do Vale Meão, and Jorge Serôdio Borges of Quinta do Passadouro.The leading vineyard, Quinta do Corujão, sits at an altitude of 1,640 feet beside Portugal's highest mountain range, Serra da Estrela. Cool, brisk air graces the vineyards at nightfall, encouraging elevated levels of natural acidity, while the soils impart a refined mineral character to the final wines: a combination that is unmistakably Dão.
