Rola Douro Tinto

Description

This “Rola Douro” appears to have sprung straight from a slightly mischievous winemaker’s daydream. It’s bursting with concentrated fruit, practically begging for a spontaneous picnic – a charming reminder of good things in the Douro. The Touriga Nacional, famed for its grace, paired with the Tinto’s robust character, delivers a truly intense experience. That gold medal at the Wine & Spirit Awards certainly suggests a worthwhile result, though we suspect the producer has a rather quirky sense of humour. Perfect with a hearty roast or a wild mushroom risotto – a combination that, frankly, seems a touch daring, but one that surprisingly works beautifully.
