Portuguese varieties – Touriga National, Tinta Cao, Tinta Francesca and Tinta Madeira – were used to create this Port in the traditional style. Elements of violet, blackberry compote and cassis emerge from the glass in this exciting offering from our Vista Verde Vineyard. Clove, star anise and tamari intermingle with elements of bittersweet chocolate and Marcona almonds on the dynamic nose. As with traditional Ports, this wine will benefit from long-term aging.
