Tapada de Villar Tinto 2017 - Quinta das Arcas

The Tapada de Villar Tinto by Quinta das Arcas reveals a dark, ruby-red color in the glass. Clean, fruity notes of medium intensity reach the nose. Here, red fruit, prune and warm vanilla notes, accompanied by oak can be smelled. On the palate the dry acid comes into effect and is balanced by soft and ripe tannins. Again, the fruity character of the Tapadas reveals advantageously. Velvety plums, sweet cinnamon, chocolate and fine nutmeg dominate. Due to the four months in oak, notes of wood and spice show up, that also shape the long reverberation of this cuvée. We recommend it to portuguese Tapas, salami, aged ham, mature cheeses or just bread with olive oil and salt.
