Vale Da Raposa Tinto

Description

Right, let’s see if we can translate this with a little bit of Portuguese flair: “It seems these grapes had quite the lively debate before fermentation – a full délestage, meticulously recorded, of course. The seven days of controlled fermentation, coupled with five days of maceration, clearly worked their magic, as evidenced by the gold medal awarded at the Berliner Wine Trophy. A subtle French influence, thanks to a 12-month ageing in third-use barrels, is blended with the characteristic contributions of the key grape varieties – Sousão, Touriga Francesa, Aragonez, Tinto Cão and Touriga Nacional – resulting in a wine of undeniable elegance. A truly excellent match for a succulent roasted cod, wouldn’t you agree?”
