The red wine Vale da Raposa Touriga Nacional, vintage 2017 from the winery Alves de Sousa has been rated in 2019 by Peter Moser with 92 Falstaff points. It is a wine made from the grape variety Touriga Nacional from the region Douro in Portugal.
Dark ruby garnet with purple reflections and discreet rim brightening. The palate shows ripe heart cherries underlaid with caramel and nougat notes and a discreet minerality. Juicy and elegant on the palate, with a taut, mineral texture and fresh acid structure. There's a discreet extract sweetness on the finish, with a chocolaty aftertaste.
