PO Casa Ermelinda Freitas Vinhas de Canivães Tinto Douro DOC

This red wine is pure pleasure. It is made from three ancient and classic red Douro berry varieties: Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca and Tinta Roriz – the same berries that make up most red ports.

VINTAGE: 2020

ALC: 13%

VARIETALS: Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca and Tinta Roriz

TASTING NOTES: airy and light, but it has the determination of the Douro berries and the intensity of the flavors. It is easy to drink and a pleasure to enjoy. The summer sunshine of the Douro banks, the minerality of the slate terraces and the cool winter winds – it is all there. It has ripe berryness, beautiful structure, light spices and smooth tannins. It is like a glass full of juicy, just-ripened cherries, which, as it turns out later, still has the right dose of spice.

PAIRING: Meat dishes, cheeses, any lighter dishes and of course just for enjoyment. Serve at 16 – 18 degrees.

This wine can be drunk immediately or stored in your home wine cellar – under good conditions it will continue to age and mature for another 8-10 years

AGING: 4 months in oak barrels.
