A Reserva-category red from the Douro, from Quinta da Pacheca, made entirely from Sousão, by Maria Serpa Pimentel and João Silva e Sousa. The colour is an intense ruby red. Sousão is a grape prized for its deep colour and acidity, typically yielding wines with dark fruit and a fresh, vigorous profile. It has an alcohol content of 14% vol. It pairs well with grilled meats, cured sausages, and stews cooked in a clay pot. Its colour is an intense ruby red. On the nose, it offers blackberry, bramble, and vegetal notes. On the palate, it has vibrant acidity and firm, powerful tannins. It pairs well with grilled meats, cured sausages, and pot-cooked dishes. Serve at 16–18 °C. At 14% vol., it comes in a 0.75 L bottle. To get the most from this red, open the bottle a few minutes before serving and pour it into a wide-bowled glass, which allows the aromas to breathe. For younger, more concentrated wines, a brief decanting helps soften the tannins. Store the bottle on its side, in a cool, dark place free from temperature fluctuations. Once opened, reseal the bottle and keep it in the refrigerator to preserve its aromas.
