Tasting Notes: At Quinta do Sobreiró de Cima we select the best grapes from the Touriga Nacional, Trincadeira and Bastardo varieties to create our Reserva red wine. With a deep garnet color, it has an aroma of ripe black fruits, spices and a balsamic touch, harmonized by 12 months of aging in French oak barrels. In the mouth, there is an intense fruitiness, with velvety tannins and a long, persistent finish. Our Reserva is a fuller-bodied wine, whose aging has given it more complexity and balance.
