Touriga Franca on Snooth
spicy yet smooth; deep red color; fruity aromas
Appearance: Ruby, orange disk. Tears are close to each other, thin, but take a little time to form. Smell: Light, little animal, leather. Blueberries. Taste: Slightly acid but smooth. A little complexity. Blueberries....
A blend - which always seems to work better than single varietals from Portugal ... Portugal - of 40% Syrah, 40% Touriga Franca and 20% Merlot. Great fruity aroma, still fresh despite a few years of age. Lovely, soft,...
Quite a nice wine for the money. Portuguese wines are beginning to become noticed and this is a really standout wine I would recommend to anyone. A smooth medium bodied wine that is nearing a full bodied wine. I feel it...
Interesting American example of a Touriga grape, blended with malbec, petite verdot, and norton. I prefer the true Portuguese stuff, but this still has similar qualities of ripe, juicy berries and forest fruits....
This is no Touriga Franca/Nacional, but it's still a nice bold tasty Portuguese.
Deep, sharp yet light. Enjoyable wine from start to finish. Nice with lightly spicy food.
