Trinity Hill 'Touriga' NV Port
Trinity Hill
This is a wine made and blended from multiple vintages. These components include complex, concentrated barrel aged material, the oldest of which comes from 2004. Younger, fresher, fruit driven wine is blended for complexity and freshness. This resulting Port style wine is crammed full of plum, chocolate and brambly fruit character.
This Port style wine is made from the traditional Portuguese varieties Touriga Nacional and Francesca. These varieties are the most important in the production of the classic Port wines of the Douro Valley in Portugal. They are grown in the stony, free-draining and warm soils of the Gimblett Gravels.
It can be drunk now or cellared for 5 - 10 years to gain further bottle complexity. Plum and blackberry fruit aromas characterize the wine, with a hint of vanillin and spice from oak barrel aging. This is a result of fully ripened fruit under temperate conditions.
The texture is rich and smooth, not cloyingly sweet and with tannins balancing the sweetness. There is great persistence of black fruit flavours on the finish.
Wonderful drinking with a beautiful blue cheese or Parmigiano.
