Golpe

2015 Douro Touriga Nacional, Tempranillo, Touriga Franca

Golpe Golpe is an exquisite red wine hailing from the renowned Douro Valley, celebrated for its rich winemaking tradition. This 2015 vintage beautifully showcases a blend of Touriga Nacional, Tempranillo, and Touriga Franca, each varietal contributing to the wine's exceptional character. The body is medium-full, offering a delightful roundness that envelops the palate. With bright acidity, the wine remains refreshing and lively, perfectly complementing its prominent fruit intensity marked by flavors of dark berries and plums. The tannins are notable yet finely integrated, adding structure and depth without overwhelming the overall experience. This wine strikes a harmonious balance and is crafted to be remarkably food-friendly, enhancing any meal it accompanies.

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.
