The red wine Touriga Nacional Douro DOC, vintage 2008 from the winery Quinta do Vallado has been rated in 2011 with 93 Falstaff points. It is a wine made from the grape variety Touriga Nacional from the region Douro in Portugal.
Deep, dark, opaque ruby, purple reflections. Intense aromas of fresh black berries, orange zest, bergamot, candied violets and a hint of savouriness. Full-bodied and complex on the palate, with vivid, well-integrated tannins, ripe cherries at the core, good raciness on the very persistent finish, definite ageing potential. An exceptional wine from the Touriga Nacional grape variety that fully exploits the ageing potential of this variety.
