Tasting Notes:
A genuine Referência (reference) combined with century-old vines, results in a wine with an exquisite profile, almost feminine, contrasting with an intense structure of juicy tannins of enormous precision. A schist texture of high gravity,
the savory profile and the purple color reflect the nature of the Touriga Nacional variety.
