About the wine
.
- This wine is 100% Touriga Nacional - Portugal's most elegant grape variety. It's like Pinot Noir... but with bigger muscles.
- It's carefully hand-picked off steep, high-altitude vineyards, in one of the prettiest wine regions on earth yet somehow it is still fantastic value for money!
- It's a young wine with lots of body, so decant if you can. No worries if you haven't got a decanter. Chuck it in a jug, rinse the bottle out, then pour it back in just before you serve so it looks a little more elegant. Result - stunning drinking.
