Rui Roboredo Madeira 2013 Beyra Superior Red (Beira Interior)

Country: Portugal / Beyra Superior
Variety: Portuguese Red Beira Interior
Winery: Rui Roboredo Madeira /

A field blend of grapes from old vines plus a year in wood have given this wine both structure and concentration. Dark fruits, firm tannins and acidity are all present in this complex, age-worthy wine. It comes from vineyards just south of the Douro, grown on granite soils at a height of 2,100 feet. It’s a serious wine that needs to age. Drink from 2019.
