Quinta De Covelos Tinto

Description

Depending on its age, the wines may show marks left by time, such as dust residues on the bottles and/or some damage to the labels, which is common in wines that have been stored for decades. The National Cellar commits to storing all wines at the correct temperature and humidity, but it always chooses to preserve the visual appearance inherent to their age. We generally select brands/regions that usually perform well in old wine tastings. However, wine is a living organism that, like others, is exposed to time, and even inside a bottle the aromas are subject to different evolutions. Therefore, the National Cellar cannot be held responsible for the wine's quality, as it is an aged wine. Our recommendation is to open and let the bottle air out beforehand, as this will help release the wine’s natural aromas after so many years closed. Avoid decanting, as it could be too aggressive for old wines. (Illustrative image only.)
