Quinta do Infantado Douro Tinto 70cl - Portugal Red Wine

Product Notes

Quinta do Infantado Douro Tinto is a dark ruby red wine hailing from the Douro Valley region of Portugal. It is a blend of traditional grape varietals such as Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca, Tinta Roriz, and Tinta Barroca, sourced from the estate's oldest vines. The wine is aged in oak barrels for 18 months, imparting subtle vanilla and spice notes to the fruit-forward bouquet. On the palate, it showcases rich flavors of raspberry, black cherry, and plum, balanced with savory undertones of leather and tobacco. Its bold tannins and velvety finish make it the perfect pairing for hearty meat dishes or aged cheeses.

Tasting Notes

This wine is deep ruby in colour with violet hues, with intense aromas of raspberries, ripe plums, blueberries and cloves. Medium bodied on the palate with smooth, ripe tannins, juicy black fruit flavours and a long, succulent finish.

About the Winery

Quinta do Infantado is a Portugal wine label that has been revolutionising the wine market ever since 1979. It changed the scene of the bottled Ports ever since it started making high-quality, estate wines from grapes sourced from the best of the vineyards located in Portugal. Thanks to this brand, the small winegrowers of Portugal got their due, which had been denied to them for a long time.

Located in the scenic town of Pinhao in the sub-district of Gontelho, the Quinta do Infantado Estate has a rich history. In the 19th century, this estate was owned by the Roseira Family. Today, many generations later, the young Roseira family members take full control of the viticultural and winemaking processes that happen here.
