Tasting notes:
Colour: Deep purple hue.
Aroma: Upfront red berry fruit of raspberry & blueberry with a subtle floral edge.
Palate: Quite a balanced medium bodied red wine with a fine firm tannin structure. Those aromatics of the red berry fruits follow wonderfully onto the palate with a subtle spice mid palate.
Finish: The spice lingers for a while with hints of dark chocolate.
Serving Suggestion: A stew will accompany the full flavour of the Touriga Nacional wine or match up this Portuguese varietal with a traditional Portuguese piri piri chicken.
Alcohol Percentage: 13.5%.
Product Description:
This is our third incarnation of this wonderful Portuguese variety. We grafted Touriga onto some 25 year old Shiraz vines and sold the first few vintages to other wine companies. Touriga Nacional is one of the key varieties used to make ports, but we have made a wonderful mid-weight floral dry red style. The wine is open fermented and spends no time in oak, to allow the lovely floral characters their full expression. The wine was bottled pretty early too.
