The Casa Burmester Touriga Nacional showcases the depth and complexity of the Touriga Nacional grape, which is often used in premium Portuguese blends but also stands strong on its own.

Tasting NotesWith a deep, vibrant ruby colour, it features finefloral notes enveloped by ripe plums and black berry fruit. Superb and sophisticated, marked by remarkable volume on the palate. The tannins show up fine and polished, with well-defined berry flavours of the noble Touriga Nacional with additional layers of spice . The finish is long and persistent.

Serving and Food Pairing Serve at 16-18 Celsius. This wine pairs well with hearty dishes like grilled meats, lamb, or rich stews. Also goes well with strong aged cheeses.
