Food Pairing: Grilled steak, roast lamb, game meats, braised beef, mushroom dishes, aged cheeses, and rich Mediterranean cuisine.

This is sleek and well-knit, marrying sculpted tannins and a minerally underpinning of iron and smoke notes with flavors of blackberry paste, warm fig, green olive and rooibos tea. Tightly meshed through the racy finish. Touriga Franca, Touriga Nacional and Tinta Roriz. Best from 2027 through 2035. 9,139 cases made, 500 cases imported.
