Description
The 2019 Quinta das Carvalhas Tinto is a red wine from Portugal's Douro Valley, produced by Real Companhia Velha. This wine is a blend of traditional Portuguese grape varieties, including Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca, and Tinta Roriz.
Tasting Notes: This wine presents a beautiful and intense ruby colour, with powerful varietal aromas of mature red fruit successfully integrated with vanilla nuances from ageing in oak. It is very full-bodied, harmonious, and round with flavours of black fruit, leading to a very long and velvety finish crowned by excellent acidity.
