A hedonistic red wine blend that isn't Port, proves Portugal's potential for making modern still red wines of high quality. Quinta di Cabriz sets the high watermark in the region of Dao with this medium bodied blend bringing together top indigenous grapes. The boutique producer handpicks the grapes from 94 hectares of vineyards that sit at an altitude of 800 metres, giving the harvested fruit good polyphenolic ripeness. The region's dry weather and arid soils give the wine a veneer of intensity to balance the hearty fruit, illuminating Portugal's modern wine revolution.
