Vicentino Reserva Touriga Nacional Tinto

Description

“This Vicentino Reserva, hailing from the Alentejo, is clearly a wine that’s been allowed to mature with patience – a slow, deliberate fermentation at 26°C followed by a month of maceration that feels like a lengthy, passionate romance. The Touriga Nacional dominates, resulting in a wine the producers describe as radiating elegance and complexity, with tannins so smooth they almost feel like a warm embrace. The ageing in French oak adds a subtle toasty note, but don’t be fooled – the balanced acidity and impressive longevity suggest this is far more than just a polite gesture. It pairs wonderfully with roasted pork, for instance.”
