Product Overview
Distributor's Notes
"The Vinho Tinto is deeply colored and purple hued in the glass. The bright and floral nose combines dried rose petals and crushed violets with Rainier cherry and a touch of black pepper spice. On the palate, black cherry and juicy blackberry greet you at the entrance, followed by a crushed granite minerality in the midpalate. Tannins are present in the wine but don’t dominate, and are complemented by a creamy texture on the finish, with well-integrated and subtle oak notes lingering. Our go-to bottle for pizza night or pasta with homemade red sauce."

88 Points - Wine Spectator
"This unusual red is distinctive yet lacks something in focus, offering medium-bodied dried cherry, grilled anise and smoky meat accents. Touriga Nacional, Syrah, Tinta Roriz, Souzão, Petite Sirah, Tinta Cão, Mourvèdre and Counoise. Drink now through 2030. 1,047 cases made." -TF, 3/24/25
