Quinta do Gradil Reserva Red

GRAPE VARIETIES

40% Tannat, 30% Touriga Nacional

and 30% Alicante Bouschet.

WINEMAKING & AGEING

After handpicked harvest and careful selection of the grapes,

fermentation occurred in small stainless steel vats at 25ºC

temperature and after malolactic fermentation was completed

aged for 18 months in new French oak barrels. The wine rested

still for 6 months in bottle after barrel ageing.

TASTING NOTES

Reveals complex aromas in tasting where ripe fruit is present,

such as blueberries, balsamic notes and some smoked notes as

well. The tannins are silky and balanced in the mouth, well

integrated into the wine's structure, providing a long and

consistent nish. A very gastronomic wine where Atlantic

freshness is present.

PAIRING SUGGESTIONS

Matured meats, hunting dishes such as wild boar. Meat stew

where soaked lamb can stand out.
