Touriga Nacional Grande Reserva

2011 Douro Touriga Nacional, Tinta Barocca, Tinta Roriz

Quinta Da Pacheca Touriga Nacional Grande Reserva from the renowned Douro region is an exquisite red wine that showcases the elegant and robust character of the Touriga Nacional grape, complemented by the contributions of Tinta Barocca and Tinta Roriz. This vintage delivers a full-bodied experience with a rich, deep color that captivates the eye. The acidity is pronounced, providing a bright and lively profile that enhances the wine's overall structure. The tannins are notably firm, lending strength and depth to the palate, while the fruit intensity bursts forth with prominent notes of dark berries, plums, and subtle hints of floral undertones. This wine is seamlessly dry, allowing for a clean finish that invites another sip, making it a perfect companion for hearty dishes or an evening of fine dining.

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.
