Description

Quinta do Vesuvio is the flagship red wine of the estate. Touriga Nacional is one of the two most important grape varieties for the Vesuvio red wine. These vines are grown in the Quinta Nova vineyard located at 450 metres altitude, with a fine westerly aspect. HIghly elegant and accomplished, with great ageing potential.

Tasting Notes

This magnificent wine is the top wine of one of the most renowned estate of the Douro valley, Quinta do Vesuvio. It exudes a beautiful bouquet of roses, red berry, Mediterranean vegetation and heaps of freshness. Crafted with wonderful structure and exceptional balance, this wine is sexy and sumptuous on the well-weighted palate, with rounded fruit and fine tannins, and continues onto an elegant and highly satisfying finish. One of the top wine of this outstanding vintage.
