Villa Nogueira Tinto

Description

This Villa Nogueira, hailing from the Lisboa region and dominated by Touriga Nacional (80%), is a delightful reminder of the region’s elegance. Initially offering refreshing menthol and balsamic notes – surprisingly reminiscent of Syrah and Pinot Noir – it quickly reveals a vibrant core of wild red berries, a signature of the Touriga Nacional. Smooth tannins, the result of ageing in used French oak barrels, provide perfect balance, a score worthy of 16 points from *Revista de Vinhos*. Seriously, it pairs beautifully with a hearty red meat or game, solidifying its place as a truly soulful Portuguese wine.
