    Esporão Torre 2017 Red Wine

    Torre Red Wine by Herdade do Esporão is the result of small and immeasurable details which combine to express the originality of its terroir.

     The 2011 Torre Do Esporao, mostly Alicante Bouschet, Syrah and Touriga Franca along with some others, has been in bottle for some two years now.  This is sensual in its texture, caressing and appealing. Yet, it has plenty of power and backbone. Intense on the finish, it is not yet able to express its fine fruit. Yet, in the long run, it seems sophisticated, balanced and very classy. It should age beautifully, too.
