Kompassus Tinto Cão Tinto

Description

Kompassus Tinto Cão is a red wine from Bairrada, Portugal, produced by Kompassus. It is made from the Tinto Cão grape variety. Vintage 2015. 999 bottles of the first varietal Tinto Cão, from a 10-year-old vineyard. A red meant for the table, it showcases the character of both the region and its grape varieties. Garnet in colour. On the nose, red fruit and floral notes. On the palate, elegant, fresh and with fine tannins. Pairs well with roast suckling pig, goat and cured sausages. Serve at 14–16 °C. Alcohol 13% vol., presented in a 0.75 L bottle. To get the most out of this red, open the bottle a few minutes before serving and pour it into a wide-bowled glass, which lets the aromas breathe. For younger, more concentrated wines, a brief decanting helps soften the tannins. Store the bottle on its side, in a cool, dark place free from temperature fluctuations. Once opened, reseal the bottle and keep it in the refrigerator to preserve the aromas.
