A classy, full-bodied red that would be a brilliant warming winter match for a hearty hotpot. The blend of Tourigas Nacional and Franca with a dash of Tinta Roriz has seen time in French and American oak, but the influence is supportive not overwhelming, the tannins fleshed out by generous inky blackberry and cherry fruit.
