Romano Cunha Tinto

Description

The collaboration between two esteemed winemakers, the Spanish Raul Perez and winemaker Mario Romano Cunha, has given birth to a work of art that transcends borders. Their dedication and wisdom are reflected in this wine, which demonstrates that Trás‑os‑Montes, a region near Mirandela in northern Portugal, is capable of producing wines that rival the best in the world. “The batch of Tinta Roriz/Tinta Amarela/Touriga Nacional (…) impressed me. Raúl Pérez is a consultant for Romano Cunha, and, as he did in Bierzo, this pioneering Spanish winemaker has pushed the limits of quality for Trás‑os‑Montes. Having previously sold his wine in bulk, Mario Romano Cunha now vinifies a third bottle under the same high‑quality label, which is only released after significant bottle ageing. With rigorous viticulture, he “maltreats” the vines to minimise yields and maximise concentration, pruning one kilogram per vine for reds and only 300–500 g for whites. Mature and sensual, with beautiful fruit depth, balance, and length, the wines of Romano Cunha are built to age.” – Sarah Ahmed, Wine Detective investigates Trás‑os‑Montes, Wine Magazine Allergen information Contains sulfites.
