Quinta do Noval Douro Reserva Tinto 2020
This fine and intense red wine from the Douro Valley is a delicate blend of grapes that are native to this part of Portugal. Only the best grapes have been carefully selected. The result is a red wine with a beautiful colour and structure, good tannins and acidity. Delicious with beef and venison, you will enjoy it young or after a couple of years, as it has very good ageing potential.
