Dos Lusiadas (M. Chapoutier)Eleivera 2022

About this wine

This Douro red from Dos Lusiadas is a beautiful introduction to Portugal's most celebrated grape, Touriga Nacional. At 13.5% alcohol, it strikes a perfect balance between power and elegance, making it an ideal choice for both weeknight dinners and special occasions.

The wine opens with vibrant aromas of wild blackberries and violets, leading to a palate bursting with dark cherry and hints of Mediterranean herbs. The tannins are smooth and well-integrated, while a refreshing acidity keeps everything lively and balanced. It's the kind of wine that makes you want to take another sip.

Serve this beauty at around 16-18°C alongside grilled lamb chops, a hearty beef stew, or even a simple pasta with tomato sauce and chorizo. The wine's natural freshness also makes it a great match for aged cheeses like Gruyère or a selection of charcuterie.
