<p>On the tasting notes, the Taboadella Encruzado typically displays a crystalline brilliance with a citrus to straw-yellow color. The aroma offers a complex bouquet of citrus notes, white stone fruits, melon, and often floral overtones, which can evolve into hazelnut, resin, and subtle spice with age. On the palate, it's described as firm and exuberant, with a silky, waxy, and creamy texture balanced by a crisp, linear, mineral acidity. This full-bodied and lively wine, with notable depth and a long finish, pairs exceptionally well with a variety of dishes. It's ideal for seafood, rich fish, structured white meats, creamy risottos, and aged or semi-soft cheeses.</p>

<p></p><p><span>Vale Meão Red is very concentrated in colour. Deep and complex nose with lots of aromatic nuances, yet maintaining the balance between them. In the mouth it is vibrant, in a set of great elegance, showing an excellent integration of the wood, a surprisingly large variety of flavours, and a very long aftertaste</span></p> <p></p> <p></p>

<p></p><p>The Quinta do Côtto, in Cidadelhe, relatively close to the Régua, is a property of 75 hectares of vineyard and a plot built in the eighteenth century. The owners of the farm, the Montez Champalimaud family, exclusively produced Port wine until the beginning of the 20th century. In 1980 Miguel Champalimaud launched the first Quinta do Côtto Grande Escolha, consolidating the concept of Douro's quinta wines, which are still rare in the region.<br />The Quinta do Côtto brand has grown greatly in notoriety since then, until it became one of the most classic and prestigious references in the Douro region</p>

<p></p><p>The Lés-a-Lés project came from winemaker Jorge Rosa Santos' desire to recover old grape varieties and styles of wines that almost no longer exist in Portugal. Each wine is, therefore, an invitation to discover forgotten heritage. Just like the expression "Lés-a-Lés" in Portuguese means "to go from one end to the other".</p>
