3 Uni Borges Dão Reserva + 1 Fita Azul Passion Tinto

Description

This “Reserva” from 3Uni, enhanced with the Fita Azul Passion blend, is a rather inventive – some might say audacious – exercise in crafting pleasure. Built on the classic Dão foundation of Touriga Nacional and Dão Branco, it’s been generously fortified with ripe fruit, almost to the point of excess, hinting at an exceptionally bountiful harvest. The result is a wine that’s undeniably charming, though perhaps a tad sweet, and clearly designed for creamy cheeses and, let’s be honest, a generous helping of *pastel de nata* with an alarming amount of whipped cream. Thankfully, its silver medal at the Decanter World Wine Awards suggests someone thought the effort was, indeed, worthwhile.
