The 2017 Quinta do Vallado Touriga Nacional Douro opens with a mature nose - redolent in wild fruits, bergamot, violet, and spicy hints. The taste is elegant, round and very fruity, with silky tannins. It is a very balanced wine, with a long, fresh finish.
Serve with light meat dishes, such as pork, or flavorful, hard cheeses from cow or sheep’s milk.
