About the wine
Blooming and graceful landscapes of the Douro Valley give us these grapes, from which the winemaker from the Portuguese winery Dirk Niepoort conjures up this red wine with refinement and sensitivity. Do you already know the powerful Touriga Franca Robustus Douro DOC born in 2009? If not, it's time! Flaschenpöstler tip: Combine this Touriga Franca with white meat or grilled vegetables.
Item no. 1204699
Tasting note
The nose is complex and fresh. The fruit profile is characterized by wild fruits such as blackberries and blueberries, plus notes of tobacco, cloves and cedarwood. In the background, the wine shows the graphite notes typical of slate soils, as well as a hint of mint, which refreshes the aroma profile once again. The palate has a powerful start and the wine is firm and elegant despite the enormous fruit intensity. The excellent quality of Robustus 2017 is also attested by renowned wine critic James Suckling, who named it the top wine from Portugal in 2023 and awarded it 98 points.
Culinary recommendation
Goes well with mushrooms, game.
Vinification
The grapes are harvested by hand and carefully selected. The alcoholic fermentation takes place with ambient yeasts and is followed by a long maceration. The aging takes place for 4 years in 2000-liter wooden barrels. The wine is bottled unembellished and unfiltered.
