Adega Cooperativa da Labrugeira Syrah - Tinta Roriz 2018

This Portuguese blend presents a deep garnet hue, indicative of its robust character. The nose opens with a medley of ripe blackberries and plums, underscored by hints of cracked black pepper and subtle eucalyptus. On the palate, the wine reveals a full-bodied structure, with velvety tannins and a balanced acidity that accentuates its dark fruit core. The mid-palate introduces layers of dark chocolate and a whisper of graphite, leading to a long, mineral-driven finish. This wine exemplifies the harmonious integration of Syrah's spice with Tinta Roriz's fruit-forward elegance, making it a compelling choice for connoisseurs.
