Why You'll Love It
Lively and full of bright fruit, this Dão red combines cherries and violets with peppery spice and gentle, dusty tannins. It's a cracking midweek dinner wine with roast chicken, sausages or pizza, and takes well to a short spell in the fridge.
About The Producer
Adega de Penalva was founded in 1960 by eleven growers in Penalva do Castelo, in the northern Dão. It now brings together around a thousand members, many tending small family plots among the region's granite hills. The cooperative gives these growers the facilities to turn local grapes into wines with a clear regional character. Its Indigena blends are particularly good introductions to the Dão: fresh, expressive and full of interest at an everyday price.
Winemaking Information
The 2023 blends 40% Touriga Nacional, 30% Tinta Roriz and 30% Jaen. Hand-harvested grapes are fully destemmed, and the wine is matured in stainless steel and concrete tanks. The absence of oak keeps the focus on lively fruit, freshness and the varieties' natural structure.
