Quinta Da Lagoalva Castelão Touriga Nacional Tinto

Description

Right then, let’s have a look at this one. This Castelão and Touriga Nacional from Quinta da Lagoalva seems to have been rather hastily harvested – they’re saying “from one night to the next!” – and aged in a curious mix of French and American oak barrels at a cool 24°C. It’s a decision that’s certainly injecting a bit of modern elegance, promising some lovely woody notes alongside the signature tonic fruit of the Castelão. Honestly, it’s a pleasant surprise for those who enjoy a touch of contemporary flair, and it pairs beautifully with grilled beef.
