Touriga Nacional

Touriga Nacional is the leading quality red grape varietal of Portugal. Whilst it is most highly regarded when used in the fortified wines of Port made in the Douro Valley, it is becoming recognised as a leading grape in "table" red wines, also. Sometimes it is referred to as Portugal's Cabernet Sauvignon as it has a richness, complexity and array of black fruit flavours akin to that of a great Cabernet Sauvignon.
