Country: Portugal / Vinha do Rio
Variety: Portuguese Red Douro
Winery: Quinta Vale Dona Maria /
This top wine from Quinta Vale Dona Maria comes from a small parcel of old vines on the estate close to the river Torto. Foot treading in lagars give the wine its richness and sumptuous character. It also provides tannins that are cushioned by the superripe black fruits and acidity. This long-term wine shouldn’t be touched until 2020.
