Porca De Murça Reserva Tinto 2011
Douro Valley, Northern Portugal, PortugalThe freshness in this sun-soaked Douro red might surprise you, but north facing vineyards and early picking dates have yielded a medium bodied, juicy, fresh red. Earth, crimson, aged wood, slight leather, aromatic florals, black cherry and punchy spice spread across lightly grippy tannins. Nice value in a fresh, authentic red. Blend of touriga nacional, touriga franca, and tinta roriz. I enjoyed with roasted chicken and fresh olive/tomato salad. Tasted: 14 October 2014Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:ON | $18.00 | 750ml | |
