Dos Lusiadas (Chapoutier) Pinteivera Tinto - 2018 (750ml)
In 2009, Michel Chapoutier picked out a plot in the Douro Valley. A small – very small – plot of 3 hectares, but full of promise: Eleivera. Here, the winters are tough, the summer a long, dry heatwave. To get sufficient output, Michel Chapoutier joined forces with local producers and worked with them to grow touriga nacional, a typical Portuguese grape. The result was Pinteivera and Eleivera, two representatives of this region, which is a Unesco world heritage site.
Appearance:Â radiant, pale yellow hue flecked with gold.
Nose:Â complex and expressive releasing fruity (apricot, citrus) and floral (acacia) notes, along with honey and vanilla.
Palate:Â this fresh, full-bodied wine is broad on entry to the palate and shows a lovely minerality and floral aromas on the finish.
