Casa Do Escudo Tinto

Descrição

Depending on its age, the wines may show signs left by time, such as dust traces on the bottles and/or some damage to the labels—common in wines that have been stored for decades. Garrafeira Nacional commits to store all wines at the correct temperature and humidity, but it also chooses to preserve the visual appearance inherent to their age. We typically select brands/regions that usually perform well in old wine tastings. However, wine is a living organism, like all others, exposed to time, and even inside a bottle its aromas evolve differently. Therefore, Garrafeira Nacional cannot be held responsible for the wine’s quality, given that it is an aged wine. Our recommendation is to open and let the bottle breathe beforehand; this will help release the wine’s natural aromas after so many years closed. Avoid decanting—the operation may be too aggressive for old wines. (Illustrative image only)
