Dona Georgina

2008 Dao Touriga Nacional, Tempranillo

Quinta De Lemos Dona Georgina is a captivating red wine hailing from the renowned Dao region. This exquisite blend primarily showcases the rich and flavorful Touriga Nacional and Tempranillo varietals, crafted to perfection in the esteemed 2008 vintage. Its deep, ruby color hints at the wine's bold character, while the nose reveals an enticing bouquet of dark fruit, harmoniously complemented by subtle floral notes. On the palate, this wine exhibits a medium-bodied presence with a well-integrated acidity that enhances its vibrancy. The tannins are approachable yet structured, providing a firm backbone that supports its luscious fruit intensity. As it unveils its complexities, each sip culminates in a delightfully dry finish, making this wine a splendid choice for pairing with hearty dishes or enjoying on its own.

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.
