More about this wine from Douro, Portugal
If you’re looking for a representation of Portuguese Douro Valley wines, you are definitely going to want to explore (and we mean purchase) this red blend from Fonte da Perdiz. Not only is it fascinating as a sensory experience, but it’s fun and tasty to drink. The wine is made with four grapes: Tinta Roriz (aka Tempranillo), Tinta Barroca (often used for Port wine which adds that inexplicably complex Portuguese density/ intensity), Touriga Nacional, and Touriga Franca — the latter of which are two of the most influential for a lip-smacking outcome. It’s going to hit you where you like it the most, in the mouth, the nose or the belly, so drink up!
How to drink it

Pro Tip:

A wine this intense loves to partner with something equally intense, so meats or a hearty Italian meal like this hearty red pesto pasta will hit the spot.
