CASTELLO D'ALBA GRANDE RESERVA / RED
Vintage 2017
"The origin of the grapes grown in field blend allowed to combine the great aromatic complexity of the Old Vines with the great concentration of the Douro Superior. Notes of very ripe fruit, rock rose and spices, balanced with the freshness of the Touriga Nacional.
The long ageing in oak barrels added elegance and structure to this wine. Great ageing potential."
