Taboadella Alfrocheiro Reserva Tinto

Description

This Taboadella Alfrocheiro Reserva, born in the heart of the Dão, is a testament to the virtue of patience. Crafted entirely from the Alfrocheiro grape – a variety that, after the phylloxera crisis, found its rightful place on the region’s most demanding slopes – the wine benefits from 7 months ageing in 500L French oak barrels. This careful maturation lends a refined complexity, while retaining the distinctive tannins that define the grape. The “desengaged by vibration” winemaking process reveals a remarkably attentive approach to the fruit. Achieving a stellar 91 points from Vinexpressen, this wine isn't just good; it's a genuine tribute to the Dão’s ancient typicity – a pairing that sings alongside a hearty black pork roast.
