Quinta de Foz de Arouce Tinto 2013

Quinta de Foz de Arouce Tinto 2013 is a bold Portuguese wine made with Baga and Touriga Nacional. Like many other big reds this pairs exceptionally with game and a beef stew. The nose shows you plum, leather, and tobacco that also shows up on the palate with additional pepper and red fruit.

Very good wine tasted at Decanter Wine Day Event. Made with 80% Baga and 20% Touriga Nacional. Aged for 6 months in small French oak barrels. Aromas of cassis, cherry, blackberry, raspberry, tobacco, resin, spices and floral. On the palate medium body, good balance, structured, good complexity and acidity. Soft tannins. 

Deep red in color, this wine has excellent aromatic concentration, emanating notes of red fruits and resin. Well-balanced with soft tannins and a persistent finish.
