Description
In a nutshell:
Fancy a taste of Portugal's wild side? This juicy red from the Douro Valley bursts with ripe fruit and a touch of spice.
The lowdown:
A burst of fresh red fruits like raspberries and plums greets the nose in this juicy red from Portugal's Douro Valley. The palate echoes the fruitiness, with a touch of spice and supple tannins adding complexity. Made from a blend of indigenous grapes such as Touriga Franca and Tinta Roriz, the wine benefits from fermentation in stainless steel tanks, preserving its vibrancy. This youthful red is all about freshness and drinkability.
The Altano Rewilding Initiative is a partnership between Symington Family Estates and Rewilding Portugal. It involves eco-conscious wine production, with profits supporting the restoration of wild landscapes and native wildlife in Portugal's Greater Côa Valley.
The Producer:
Symington Family Estates may be synonymous with Port, but their Quinta do Ataíde project reveals another side to the Douro Valley. Here, the focus is squarely on crafting distinctive still wines from organically farmed vineyards. Located in the cooler Vilariça Valley, these wines offer a refreshing take on classic Douro varieties. Think Touriga Nacional with vibrant fruit, ripe yet elegant tannins, and a sense of place that's distinct from their fortified cousins. Ataíde represents a commitment to showcasing the Douro's compelling versatility and the Symington family's unwavering dedication to quality.
When to drink:
A bright and fruity red like this is a doddle for a summery lunch - think charcuterie boards, salads with a bit of bite, or lighter grilled meats.
Suitable for Vegans
