"32 botanicals bring about an intense and fragrant aroma, fresh and sea-scented, with citrus and notes of spice that confer an exotic lightness. Same character in the mouth, dense and deeply flavoured, with great balance between its smooth sweetness, refreshing acidity and subtle bitterness. A long and lingering finish.”
--------THE PRODUCER--------

--------THE REGION--------
Douro Valley
The Douro Valley is by far the most important and well-known region in all of Portugal. It has the longest history of winemaking as well. The Douro is practically synonymous with Port - the fortified wine that is made in the region, though in recent years 'table wine' has become modernised and more popular.
