Quinta do Portal Red Auru 2009

Winemaking:
Alcoholic fermentation in stainless steel with maceration at 24-26ºC. It aged for 14 months in new French oak barrels.

Varieties:
Touriga Nacional, Tinta Roriz, Touriga Franca

Test results:
Very dense and concentrated, it impresses with the quality of the fruit and its multisensory complexity. It is dark in color, with an aroma where black fruits predominate, in addition to a fresh floral sensation and some spices. The presence in the mouth is impressive, well structured, showing its grip, but never losing balance and harmony. In the end, we have the perception of his youth, but also the great capacity for aging that will certainly make us proud over the years.

Store and serve advice:
Serve at a temperature of 16 to 17ºC.

Pairing with food:
It can be enjoyed with your favorite red meat or cheeses.
