Dão, Portugal

Touriga Nacional, Tinta Roriz

This 2015 Special Edition from Cabriz is a mellow, velvety Portuguese red with a bit of age and a lot of charm. Hailing from the highland vineyards of the Dão, it’s all ripe dark berries, dried herbs, a touch of tobacco and a gentle lick of oak. Smooth and warming, with fine tannins and a long, elegant finish.

It’s a perfect match for roast lamb, aged cheeses, or a slow-cooked stew — the sort of wine that feels just right when the evening’s drawing in and the table’s already full. Classic, comforting, and beautifully put together.
