Quinta do Vallado, Douro Superior, 2023

Crunchy and Vibrant Portuguese red from one of the oldest and most famous estates in the Douro Valley

"Purity, vibranty and freshness in this unpretentious blend of Touriga Franca, Touriga Nacional, Tinta Roriz, Sousão and old field blends. Crunchy red and blue fruit mingle on the palate supported by vibrant acid and zesty tannins. So drinkable but never simple, with alluring layer of fruit, herbs and sotobosque. A bottle that elevates the 'everyday drinking' concept to a new level."
