Luis Pato Baga-Touriga Nacional 2022, Beira, Portugal

VARIETAL 
60% Baga & 40% Touriga Nacional 

 

TASTING NOTES

This is a beautiful marriage of Portuguese grapes. Touriga Nacional adds a bit of juiciness and depth to Baga's flavors of violets and raspberries and high-acid structure blending flavors of berries and black plums with hints of coffee, hay, tobacco and smoke. What more do you want out of your Portuguese red?  Pair this unsung hero made from the father of modern Baga with roasted meats, a eggplant Mediterranean pizza or a prosciutto mac and cheese.
