Description
Quinta do Vesuvio is part of the mighty Symington Family Estate. The Pombal de Vesuvio has pretty floral aromatics on the nose that mingle with milk chocolate notes and dark fruits. The palate is opulent and open with more dark fruits and black cherry characters, clove spice and peppery tannins balanced with fine tannins. Delicious now but with the abaility to age further in bottle.
One of the principal components of Pombal do Vesuvio comes from the terraced vineyards that surround the ancient dovecote (‘pombal’ in Portuguese) planted primarily with Touriga Nacional during 2000 in the heart of this legendary Douro property. Touriga Franca from the Vale da Teja and Minas vineyards is the other significant contributor to the Pombal, along with a smaller contribution from the Tinta Amarela from the Quinta Nova vineyard.
35% Touriga Franca
30% Touriga Nacional
