Palpite Tinto

Description

This Palpite from the Douro – lauded with a discerning 91 points by Robert Parker – is a wine of remarkable concentration, bursting with fruit and carrying a distinct mineral character. Grown on schist-granite soils and harvested at night, the grapes deliver a complex expression, enhanced by a natural, spontaneous fermentation, lending it a truly elegant touch. Following 18 months ageing in French oak, the wine boasts a beautifully balanced finish with impressive longevity – perfect alongside a grilled red meat or a hearty beef stew.
