Conceito, Legítimo 2016

Deep in colour, juicy-fruited with inky florals, powdery, fine tannins and great freshness. All this makes for a great foody wine, recognisable as a Douro red but light. 

Country: Portugal Region: Douro Grapes: Touriga Franca, Touriga Nacional, Tinta Roriz.

ABV: 13.5% Bottle Size: 75cl Natural Wine

Additional Information: The Legitimo is a typical blend of Douro red grape varieties, but made in a traditional way and style. It has been made with minimal intervention and in a lighter style than might be expected for modern Douro. The grapes are at higher altitude at Conceito, and harvested early to ensure acidity. Natural fermentation of whole bunches, in stainless steel, has been used for a light extraction, and fruit focus.
