Quinta Do Espinho Tinto

Description

This robust red from Quinta do Espinho, crafted from traditional Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca, and Tinta Barroca, isn’t content with just being a wine – it demands attention. Fermented under controlled temperature (a surprisingly meticulous 25°C) in their authentic granite *lagar*, it delivers a remarkable intensity. The addition of 500-litre new French oak barrels for a 50-month aging process adds layers of complexity, solidifying its potential for aging. Notably awarded 89 points by Robert Parker and 16.5 points by *Revista de Vinhos*, this wine pairs exceptionally well with grilled beef and aged cheeses.
