This wine is a tribute to the train (‘comboio’) that has been such a lifeline to Quinta do Vesúvio since the late 19th century – and to the rich, perfumed character of Douro Valley fruit. Unoaked and lightly macerated, it shows heady violet florals on the nose, then pure blueberry and grape skin flavours on the palate, undercut by ripe raspberry. There’s structure, but it’s the wine’s charm that wins you over.
