With a full body, this wine offers a remarkable depth, supported by high acidity that delivers a bright and lively experience on the palate. The fruit intensity is prominent, featuring luscious notes of dark fruits that entice the senses, while the tannins are notable, providing a firm structure that complements its bold flavor profile.

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.
