Intervalo, Tinto 2023

Place: Alcobaça, Portugal

Grape: Castelao +Touriga Nacional

Vibe: Juicy

I’m really getting into Portuguese wines atm. They have so much depth and intrigue for such a good price. This is much lighter than you’d expect. It’s just a short maceration for a juicier, more jovial take on what could otherwise be something bulky. It needs a little time to open up, but once it does, you’re in for a cherry-laced dream. Would work equally well chilled or not. Dealers choice! ABV: 12.5%
