PURO
Trying to replicate an “old-fashioned” Douro, it shows a dense, deep, dense red with balsamic notes of bitter chocolate, dry vegetable, spices, always in a closed and serious style, long and personalized.
This wine is made by Jorge Rosas, producer of the magnificent Quinta da Touriga Chã, and comes as a tribute to his great-grandfather, who at the time the Douro exported Port wines, decided to bottle a wine without being fortified, hence the name …
It is a phenomenal wine, just like the older brother, Touriga Chã, this wine raises the bar of quality and price, and it is set high.
A dark red wine showing restraint and seriousness, it is a wine that you can see from the beginning full bodied … but this is the first impression one has of some wines, which will be serious wines and then … stand by the way …
When you take the glass to the nose, you notice some youth in the aroma, and some restraint, but when you begin to open the wine reveals a classic aroma, spices, toasted notes, ripe black fruit … a captivating aroma that pushes the glass to the mouth…
In the mouth is a very rich wine, with a remarkable volume, fills us the mouth with a subtlety and claw, is a complex wine, with the fruit to show a remarkable quality, bitter chocolate and pepper join the more mineral traits is owner of a freshness and acidity super balanced, tannins present and with race to show that this wine has much to walk and that will refine even more in the bottle.
A Douro that will quickly become a benchmark ...
