Robustus 2008 Red Wine

Robustus 2008 has amplitude with the presence of mineral earthy notes; long and vivid, the wine imposes itself on tasting by its freshness and youth than by the weight of its structure which exhibits very polished tannins

Robustus pays tribute to the first wine that Dirk Niepoort made in 1990 with the same name and which was never released. Robustus 2004 was the first harvest

    <p></p><p>Menin Touriga Franca is a wine with a very balanced profile between wild red fruits (red currants, red plums), black cherries, forest fruits and spices from the stage in barrel increase the complexity of the whole. In the mouth, it stands out as a wine with extreme finesse that is not usually found among its peers.</p>

      <p></p><p>Quinta dos Avidagos has a wide range of wines that goes from Avidagos White, Red and Rosé, Quinta dos Avidagos Tinto Reserva, Quinta do Além Tanha Tinto and Quinta dos Avidagos Grande Reserva Tinto. The indigenous varieties such as Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca and Tinta Roriz, for the reds and Gouveio, Rabigato and Viosinho for white, allow them to achieve all the personality and character of the terroirs of the Douro. Combining cutting-edge winemaking with the traditional foot treading in granite mills (lagares), the aim is to produce wines with excellent value money with recognized quality worldwide, international profile and the nature of their homeland. The excellence of the wine culture, the use of traditional varieties, as well as the structural conditions of the region and the human project, has constituted the secret of success. The Douro is actually unique, singular. The wines deserve attention from critics regarding the quality and sales, both domestically and in export markets, have increased. It is the wish of the Quinta dos Avidagos also to join to the existing range of products, a Port wine in the future</p> <p></p> <p></p>
