This wine, crafted by the esteemed Rui Roboredo, certainly arrived with a youthful, almost boisterous energy. Following immediate délestage and crushing, the Touriga Nacional, Aragonez and Touriga Francesa grapes were subjected to a vigorous fermentation – a veritable “party” at 26°C. With audacious maceration and a malolactic fermentation, all within French oak – new and used, naturally – the result is a wine brimming with ripe fruit and structure. It seems Roboredo was keen to ensure the elegance of the Touriga Francesa wasn't lost amidst this exuberance, and it pairs beautifully with a hearty beef roast.
