Quinta de Ventozelo is one of the oldest quintas in the Douro region, as well as one of the biggest and best located. Until the property was bought by Proinsa, it was producing Port wine in bulk for big shippers from Vila Nova de Gaia. In the past, many of the international award-winning Port wines had been made from grapes grown at Quinta de Ventozelo. In addition to their Port wines, the Quinta also makes wonderful Douro table wines from the local grapes.
The Reserva Tinto is a blend of Touriga Nacional, Tinta Roriz and Touriga Franca. Good concentration of deep red colour, with hints of wood with vanilla balsamic fragrances. This medium-bodied has sweet powerful tannins with a delicate finish. Enjoy this succulent wine, ready to drink, yet with potential to develop for at least 5 years after bottling: serve with veal, lamb, and robust, oily-fleshed fish.
