## Description

The 40 Castas Reserva XVII 17º Tinto 2023 is a red wine from the Douro produced by NR Winery, which reveals the house's bolder side: a red with 17% vol. that expresses the unique characteristics of its terroir. The grapes were carefully selected from old vineyards more than 40 years old, planted as a field blend, whose genetic diversity and complexity give the wine a strong identity. Intense ruby in colour, it has a slow-opening, velvety and delicate aroma, an open profile that contrasts with the power of the Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca and Tinta Roriz varieties. On the palate it is very full-bodied and voluminous, rich in colour, with ripe fruit and spices fully integrated and firm yet soft tannins. The red fruits gain strength on the palate and lead to a full, warm, long and balanced finish. A complex and surprising dry red, ideal with grilled red meats, roast kid and cured cheeses. Serve between 16 and 18 ºC.
