Mateus Nicolau de Almeida Trans Douro Express Douro Superior
Located almost at the border with Spain, the dryest and warm area in Douro, its a more structured and fuller body wine, compared to Cima Corgo, or Baixo Corgo, but follows the same recipe, field blend from old vines, spontaneous fermentation and stage for 8 months in cement vessels.
Bright, deep, ruby color, ripe red and black fruits, floral notes, smoke and spices. Bolder body, firm but polished tannins, and fresh minerality to balance out the ripeness.
