Adelaide

2014 Douro Red Blend

The Vallado Adelaide is an exquisite red blend from the prestigious Douro region, renowned for its stunning landscapes and rich winegrowing heritage. This 2014 vintage showcases a deep, alluring red color that invites exploration. The wine is beautifully balanced, presenting a medium-bodied profile, complemented by moderate acidity that enhances its vibrancy. Expect a prominent fruit intensity, with luscious notes of dark berries and ripe plums that envelop the palate. The tannins are notable yet refined, offering a structured backbone that supports the wine's complexity. Hailing from the Douro, this blend is dry, yet its fruit-forward character creates an intriguing harmony, making it a delightful choice for any wine enthusiast.

Portugal

Best known for its port dessert wine, Portugal is also home to some seriously worthwhile—though frequently overlooked—red and white table wines. This small country on the Iberian Peninsula has a wide range of climates, allowing it to produce everything from light and crisp whites in the Atlantic-cooled northwest to ripe and juicy reds in the hot and hilly Douro Valley. What often sets apart Portuguese wines is that they are often made from local grapes rather than more familiar international varieties. Difficult to pronounce (but a joy to drink!), common varietals include Touriga Nacional, Tinta Cão, and Loureiro.
