Appearance : a deep red ruby colour.

Aroma : notes of dense black and wild fruit, resinous tones, woodland aromas, moss, pine, "forest floor" and a fresh menthol touch.

Palate : firm and delicate, with its prominent tannic structure and polished tannins contributing to a fresh, austere and compelling wine. Its aromatic complexity is complemented by floral notes that invite a voluminous, delicate and persistent finish. 

Serve : Store horizontally in a cool, dry place. Serve at a temperature between 16ºC-18ºC. This wine should be decanted after 4-5 years of age.

Food Pairings : This wine is very gastronomic and perfect for meal times. It pairs wonderfully with octopus "à lagareiro", as well as oven-roasted pork shoulder.
