This Garrafeira Benfica is a wine with an immediate sense of place – clearly the product of an enologist who practically grew up in the Dão. Carlos Lucas, a man with experience across Montpellier, Piedmont, and even the Vale de S. Francisco (and a well-deserved “Enólogo do Ano” award in 2008), returns with a wine that’s a testament to his skill. Crafted from Alfrocheiro, Aragonez, and Touriga Nacional, and sourced from vineyards over 20 years old on granite soils, this wine offers a striking balance of intense aromas and elegant restraint, perfectly capturing the influence of the Dão River and its unique terroir. It’s a fantastic pairing with a hearty roast, wouldn’t you agree?
