2020 Maias Tinto
Red wines from the Dao should always demonstrate a certain succulence from a combination of altitude and granitic soils, but Maias Tinto goes the extra mile. At these even higher vineyards (around 650m), Jaen (Tinta Mencia) captures in the glass delicious crunchy fruit in this medium bodied wine.
Maias is the local name for the Weaver's Broom plant which surrounds the estate here (its yellow flowers blossom in May in this part of Dão, hence its nickname - Maio is the word for May).
Tasting Note: A brilliant ruby colour with a fruity bouquet of wild blackberries and cassis. On the palate it is soft, juicy, and very moreish. The soft tannins and gentle acidity make this wine very, very, drinkable.
Origin: Dão, Portugal
Alcohol: 13.0%
Blend: Jaen, Touriga Nacional
