Duque de Viseu Tinto Quinta dos Carvalhais NV

Duque de Viseu Tinto, Quinta dos Carvalhais, Dao, Portugal, NV

Grapes: A blend of Touriga Nacional, Tinta Roriz and Alfocheiro

Producer Tasting Note:

The wine has an intense ruby red colour, notes of wild fruit and black fruit, aromas of forest and resin and a minty finish that gives freshness to the bouquet. The notes of the wood where it aged are very well integrated into the whole. In the mouth it is smooth, elegant and balanced.

Experience and innovation are at the basis of this pioneering brand in Dão viticulture. Located in the heart of the region, Quinta dos Carvalhais is surrounded by mountains and pine forests, which bring a freshness and diversity of unique aromas to the wines that are born there, with a strong identity, elegant and delicate, and a striking gastronomic trait.

Food Match: Excellent with meat dishes, game and various types of buttery cheeses. Try it with a veal carpaccio with rosemary vinaigrette and honey. Linguica, a Portuguese pork sausage (seasoned with garlic and paprika), or a roasted pork shoulder are highly recommended with Dao reds.
