While casual red drinkers limit their cellar selections to classic Bordeaux or Italian giants, the true wine vanguard looks to the sheer schist slopes of the Douro Valley. Crafted by the globally accomplished winemaker Rui Roboredo Madeira, who returned to his native soils to champion indigenous varieties, this Reserva captures the dramatic essence of the upper Douro. It is a beautifully balanced, high society red that marries rich, port style intensity with a refined, high altitude freshness that completely redefines Portuguese table wine.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWhy It’s Exceptional\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThe Taste:\u003c\/strong\u003e A dense, deeply concentrated ruby red pour in the glass.
