Portugal's Douro, best known for port, also makes intense, spicy dry reds like this one, which is filled with blackberry, mulberry and toasted dark fruit and has power but good manners.

Vinification
From 25-year-old vines on south/east-facing schist terraces. Handpicked, rigorously sorted, foot-trodden in a traditional stone tank, transferred to an open stainless steel tank with robotic piston pressing. 10-day controlled temperature fermentation, gentle hydraulic press, 16 months aging in 225L French oak barrels.
Food Match
A full bodied wine that suits rich heavy dishes. This is a real winter warmer ideal with hearty red meat dishes.
