Vallado Quinta do vallado douro red 2024
$22.78
This dry red wine comes from Portugal, built around Tinta Barroca, Tinta Roriz (Tempranillo) and Touriga Franca from the 2024 vintage. Tinta Barroca is a Douro red grape contributing ripe, sweet dark fruit and deep color to reds and Port. There's Tinta Roriz (Tempranillo) in the blend too: the Portuguese name for Tempranillo, contributing firm structure and dark-fruit depth to Douro reds and Port. It's grown on the steep, terraced schist slopes of the Douro Valley — the breathtaking river region that gave the world Port. It's a friendly all-rounder — lovely with roast chicken, pork, mushroomy dishes or a bowl of tomatoey pasta. Best enjoyed at cool room temperature.
