Espiga Tinto Lisboa VR 2021 - Quinta da Boavista

The Espiga Tinto from Quinta da Boavista shows itself in a medium dense, ruby red color. The bouquet of this wonderful red wine from Portugal spoils with aromas of juicy black berries and floral notes of violets, rounded off by a hint of mint and laurel.
On the palate, the Espiga Tinto initially has a delicately sweet start, before juicy raspberry aromas join in. The cuvée of Touriga Nacional, Syrah, Tinta Roriz and Castelao is rounded off by a spicy finish.

Espiga is the Portuguese word for ear of corn and here indicates the perfection and complexity of the wine, similar to an ear of corn.
