Natural Cork

Portugal

Old Touriga Nacional clones from 45-year-old vines produce violet and bergamot-laced summer compote fruits: blackberry, blueberry, plum and red cherry. Originally aged in new oak, now only in used barrels, Alvaro Castro's less showy flagship better channels the Dao’s promise of elegance. Hints of mint and tertiary balsamic notes add to the complexity. Graceful tannins and fresh acidity maintain line and length.
