Taboadella - Touriga Nacional Reserva 2020
Alcohol: 13% Vol.
Grape varieties: 100% Touriga Nacional
Tasting notes: The Touriga Nacional grape variety is an international figure among the Portuguese native varieties originating from the Dão wine region. Taboadella Touriga Nacional Reserva is a superb example of its natural acidity. Violet nuances dot the terroir, leaving olfactory memories that mingle with the aroma of highland spices and the smell of wet quartzite, creating a remarkable complexity.
Quinta da Taboadella
Taboadella is located in the heart of the Dão Demarcated Region, in Silvã de Cima, in the Castendo sub-region. The property is owned by the Amorim family, who have been linked to wine since 1870, when they began producing corks for the Port wine cellars in Vila Nova de Gaia. Since 1999, the Quinta Nova de Nossa Senhora do Carmo and Quinta da Taboadella properties have been managed by Luisa Amorim, who has since then taken the family wine business forward. Today, it forms one of the most important family groups in Portugal, expanding its activities internationally and across different sectors.
The wines and vineyards have ancestral roots in Portugal's wine regions of excellence - in the Douro with Quinta Nova de Nossa Senhora do Carmo and in the Dão with Quinta da Taboadella. Indigenous grape varieties are cultivated on 127 ha of vineyards where the alliance between traditional processes and sophisticated technology is the genesis of the creation of exceptional wines.
