ONE | Red | 2014 | Bairrada | 94 Pts Robert Parker - Gold Medal Portugal Wine Trophy
Intro: Quinta do Encontro was born with the purpose of making wines that were a reference in the region. With this purpose, our winemaking team decided to explore the best that Touriga Nacional can give us, associated with Baga, the region's queen grape variety. Thus was born this wine, which conquers by the elegance and harmony of the blend, maintaining the aging potential to which Bairrada has accustomed us. An encounter you will not forget.
