Porco Espinho comes from the granite soils of the Dão, where Alfrocheiro, Tinta Roriz and Jaen combine freshness and fragrance with a naturally savoury structure. The grapes are harvested by hand, fermented at controlled temperatures and matured on their lees in stainless steel for eight months, preserving the wine’s vivid fruit while gently rounding its tannins.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePerfect With...
