Douro Rola Red Wine
75 CL
Douro Rola Tinto is a wine from producer and winemaker Ana Rola, who is focused on creating wines that express the authenticity and strength of the Douro terroir. Ana Rola uses typical Douro grape varieties, such as Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca, and Tinta Roriz, to craft a wine that highlights the region's natural characteristics, using winemaking techniques that minimize intervention, allowing the wine to express its character in a pure way.
Characteristics of Douro Rola Tinto:
- Region: Douro
- Grape varieties: Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca, and Tinta Roriz
- Aroma: It has an aromatic bouquet of ripe red and black fruits (such as plum and blackberry), floral notes (violet), and a slight minerality that is typical of the Douro's schist soils.
- Palate: On the palate, it is full-bodied and structured, with present but smooth and well-integrated tannins, and a balanced acidity that provides freshness to the wine. The finish is long, with persistent fruity and mineral notes.
- Food pairing: Pairs well with grilled meats, game dishes, aged cheeses, and traditional Portuguese cuisine, such as roast lamb or a Portuguese stew (cozido à portuguesa).
Douro Rola Tinto is an excellent option for those who appreciate wines that balance the robustness and freshness typical of the Douro. It is a wine that can be enjoyed young, but also possesses aging potential, which allows for further exploration of its complexity over time.
