The Esquerdino Red wine that you will find in this Deluxe Basket is produced from Touriga Nacional, the noblest grape variety in Portugal, capable of producing excellent varietal wines. The berries have a thick skin and the variety adapts to different climatic conditions. Scarlet tulip red color, slightly floral fruity aroma, red fruits and notes of violets, bergamot and dried Mediterranean herbs. Its structure is quite firm, with balanced and enveloping acidity, with some minerality and a very persistent and elegant finish. Touriga Nacional, being a variety that produces expressive and tightly structured wines, requires equally rich and characterful dishes to help complement its abundant fruit and opulent tannins.

From the Mountains to the Coast, this Algarve-style wine pairs well with red meats, game, white meats and sausages, such as the “Painho” Iberian Pork smaked sausage from the Algarve upland, which we offer you in this exquisite basket.
