Topaz gray color. Aromas of lightly pickled strawberry and orange zest, raspberry leaf, and blanched purple cabbage with a velvety, lively, dry medium body and a warming, interesting, medium-length bramble berries, raspberry leaves, manchego umami, and strawberry salt finish. A consumer pleasing showcase of Touriga Nacional’s lighter side.
