Tapada Do Chaves Old Vines Tinto

Description

This Tapada do Chaves, crafted from historic Trincadeira vines, offers a frankly disarming honesty. Initially, the nose unfolds dramatically, showcasing intensely ripe black fruit alongside a hint of dark chocolate – a classic sign of age and vineyard character. On the palate, the wine is undeniably powerful, with tannins asserting themselves fully, culminating in a long, intense finish reminiscent of olives. Seriously, pair it with a perfectly grilled steak and you’ve got a match made in wine heaven.
