“This Azulejo from Quinta da Lagoalva clearly prioritizes a smooth approach – nocturnal harvesting and stainless steel fermentation are key. However, the real story lies with its predominantly Tejo-grown grapes, particularly the Touriga Nacional which lends a refined elegance, complemented by the Castelão’s juicy fruit character. The six months spent ageing in a blend of French and American oak barrels adds a luxurious texture and subtle spice notes, alongside a delicate vanilla aroma. It’s a fantastic pairing with a classic arroz de pato – a truly comforting combination.”
