A red wine of exceptional quality is the Quinta da Falorca Touriga Nacional - a Touriga Nacional that will delight you! Its deep red colour and complex aromas of ripe fruit and flowers are accompanied by a touch of exotic spices. This is accompanied by an excellent balance and incredibly elegant tannin. Good structure, strong and long on the finish.
"..."Quinta da Falorca is one of my favourite producers in the Dão region, which always produces well-structured wines with great ageing potential - wines of remarkable complexity and freshness that are excellent accompaniments to food.
Mark Squires - Robert Parker, The Wine Advocate

The grapes were selected in the vineyards of Falorca and Vale das Escadinhas from vines aged 40 years and harvested manually. Fermentation in wooden barrels was carried out after the grapes were traditionally placed in granite lagars by foot. The wine was allowed to mature 50% in new oak barrels, 50% in second and third fillings and another 18 months in stainless steel tanks.
