Quinta do Vesuvio
Wine: Pombal do Vesuvio Douro 2021
Region: Douro
Grapes: Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca, Tinta Amarela
A well balanced red wine from the Douro. There’s a complexity of flavours as it’s an earthy wine with a hint of leather mixed with red cherries, black cherries and plum. A beautiful blend and a beautiful wine
The Douro region is a historic one. It’s famous for producing port wine at a high quality and rich in history and culture. This makes the region a world heritage site which shows how winemaking has evolved over the years. Vines in the Douro are grown on steep terraces along the river, creating a visually dramatic landscape.
There’s a beautiful range of wines from the Douro. You can find some really delicious light and crisp wines as well as intense full-bodied wines.
