yet always insistently bright mouthful of fruit

Shows fine balance and a lingering finish

There is plenty of muscle and a certain robust power and while the shaping tannins are dense they are also relatively fine

Casa Ferreirinha, Douro Quinta Leda other_regions_italy yet always insistently bright mouthfulFull bottle 1,495 g. Selected plots in the 170 ha of vines in Leda. Generally a similar blend. This year 43% Touriga Franca, 37% Touriga Nacional, 11% Tinto Co, 5% Tinta Roriz, 4% Souso, all co fermented. The 2020 vintage in the Douro got off to an unsettled start with a rainy spring causing an increase in disease pressure in the vineyards and a reduction in yields. The summer was dry and very hot and featured the hottest July in the last 30 years.
