Bright, vibrant but elegant aroma to red berries and a few spice notes. It is a great wine, flavourful and velvety, which finishes elegant, intense and persistent.
Excellent on its own or as a complement of grilled meat dishes, stews, risottos, pasta, vegetarian cuisine, tapas, petiscos, cod dishes and dry cheeses. Serve at 16 to 18ºC.
