Touriga Nacional Vinho Regional Alentejano Vinho Tinto

2004 Alentejano Touriga Nacional

The Encostas De Estremoz Touriga Nacional Vinho Regional Alentejano Vinho Tinto from the 2004 vintage is a delightful expression of the Alentejano region. This red wine showcases the remarkable characteristics of the Touriga Nacional varietal, offering a full-bodied experience with pronounced acidity that enhances its overall structure. The fruit intensity is notably prominent, bursting with notes of dark berries and plums, complemented by hints of floral nuances that are typical of this varietal. Tannins in this wine present a firm yet elegant quality, providing a solid backbone that supports the rich fruit profile. As a dry wine, it beautifully balances its luscious fruitiness with a savory finish, making it an excellent choice for a variety of culinary pairings.

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.
