Casa Amarela Tinto

Description

“Born in the Douro Valley with Trincadeira, Tinta Barroca, and the refined touch of Touriga Nacional, this Casa Amarela is a beautiful reminder that tradition and innovation can dance together. The traditional foot-treading in their granite lagar – a truly hands-on process – imparts a remarkable texture and intensity that simply couldn’t be replicated by machines. The result is a vibrant ruby-red wine brimming with dark fruit notes, a hint of spice, and, of course, a delicate underpinning of blackcurrant. Following careful maceration and ageing in used French oak barrels, this wine is undeniably elegant, and pairs wonderfully with a hearty beef roast – a fitting accompaniment to a celebration of flavour.”
