Description

The grapes for Vinha da Fonte Touriga Nacional are harvested in the Palmela region in September. The wine is aged for four months in oak barrels. It has a full-bodied flavor with abundant tannins and an aromatic profile featuring ripe, jam-like red berries, delicate floral notes characteristic of the grape variety, and a touch of vanilla. The long, lingering taste is softened by residual sugar, making the wine smooth and approachable.
