“This is a rescue mission of sorts – a genuine ‘species revival’ hailing from the Dão. Quinta da Pellada, boasting a wonderfully eclectic vineyard, is bravely resurrecting Portuguese grape varieties that, for reasons best left to speculation (and perhaps a dash of vanity!), had vanished from the scene. The blend of Aragonez and Touriga Nacional, sourced from carefully delineated plots and featuring intriguing Planat grapes, is a fascinating exercise in terroir rediscovery. Perfect with a hearty steak, of course, but also a celebration of the audacity of those who truly seek the authentic.”
