Dão Sul

Cabriz Colheita Seleccionada Dão Touriga Nacional Blend 1990

Good pairing with fish, grilled red and white meat and soft cheeses.
“This nice mid-weight wine hails from the Dao region of Portugal. It is a blend of grapes consisting of Alfrocheiro, Tinto-Roriz, and Touriga-National. Each grape is vinified separately, spends 6 months on oak, then it is bottled and cellared. It is defined by black currant, black raspberry, black pepper and a hint of earthiness. An elegant palate of blueberry, dark plum and black pepper spices that stay on the finish. A good match with a pepper-encrusted pork tenderloin on the grill.” Surdyk’s Spring Sale $7.49; regularly $11.99
Great with Sous-vide filets.

Quinta de Cabriz

Colheita Seleccionada Dão Red Blend

Vintage 2014 - Dão is a sentimental wine, a youth love. It was powerfull and spicy when I drank it in my youth. This wine is funky frivolous, silky structure, a touch of spices. Milk chocolate in the smell. Made of three grapes: touriga nacional, tinta roriz and alfrocheiro. Great wine to give your day a silver edge. Very good p/q. — 7 years ago

Moreira, Olazabal and Borges

Dão Red Blend 2013

Importer notes are more descriptive/educational than my own: "A blend of Touriga Nacional, Alfrocheiro, Jaen and Baga from the granite soils of Quinta do Corujão. The Touriga Nacional is foot trodden in lagar, while the Alfrocheiro, Jaen and Baga are fermented in stainless steel tank at low temperatures with little extraction. Aged for 12 months 30 percent new and 70 percent used French oak barrels."

Deep purple/violet color, nose of cassis/ripe plum and wild flowers. On the palate, it is fresh with soft tannins and practically no acidity, with its very velvety texture.

Absolutely stunning pairing with our local, grass fed Angus burgers, nestled into the best Sourdough buns your ever dug your teeth into. (Our local baker from France is a crazy Sourdough guy, he does everything with it; Pizza crusts are other-worldly!)

Quinta dos Carvalhais

Dão Alfrocheiro 2012

Made only in exceptional years, an excellent example of the Touriga Nacional grape, deep red color with black fruit aromas, aged for 12 months in new and used French oak. On the palate blackberry and black cherry flavors with herb notes, and vivid acidity, and oaky notes. The finish is about medium, fine tannins and great structure which will age well for a decade. — 8 years ago

Wine from Gran Canaria's "badlands" -- violets, juicy juice, nice kick at the end. Can do with a slight chill below cellar and even more stellar with food from the grill. — 9 years ago
