Based on our original Coalition’s use of Touriga Nacional as the main character. Touriga’s distinctive and pronounced fruit/floral/spicy note merges perfectly with Tannat and Lagrein’s powerful dark fruit and structure combining to make a wine with tremendous character. Aged in 25% new French oak adds layers to the bass tones in this blend. The structure indicates significant age worthiness but is a great hedonistic drink at the moment.
