TASTING NOTE: This pink blend of 45% Touriga Nacional, 45% Syrah and 10% Aragonez (Tempranillo) offers enticing aromas of apricot, nectarine and melon. The palate is tangy and bright with an orange-peel zestiness emerging and carrying through the finish. Chill and sip with grilled seafood or couscous salad. (VINTAGES panel, April 2017) |
