Paulo Laureano - Dolium Reserva - Alentejo Tinto

Description

This Paulo Laureno wine from the Alentejo announces its presence immediately. The Dolium Reserva, built around a restrained and direct Trincadeira alongside a powerful Aragonez, delivers an intensely concentrated experience. The terroir, influenced by the Serra de São Mamede, lends it a distinctive mineral structure, perfectly balanced with ripe black fruit – a legacy of ageing in Carvalho oak. Rumour has it, it snagged a medal at the Decanter World Wine Awards, suggesting a formidable force tempered by a certain clarity. It’s a fantastic match for a hearty duck rice, ready to face the world head-on.
