Region: Dão

Tasting Notes: In the glass, it presents a deep ruby color with violet reflections, offering an aromatic bouquet that is both vibrant and subtle. The nose is filled with red and black fruits—wild berries, plum, and black cherry—intertwined with floral notes of violets and subtle hints of eucalyptus and fresh herbs, characteristic of Touriga. On the palate, Mulher Nua is elegant yet focused, displaying the complexity of the field blend from old vineyards. The fruity profile is rich, with layers of blackberry, cassis, and raspberry, balanced by earthy nuances and a touch of minerality. Touriga adds structure and intensity, bringing flavors of ripe dark fruits and a touch of spices, such as clove and black pepper. The wine has a refreshing acidity that complements its depth, and the tannins are fine yet persistent, giving it a well-structured and balanced feel.

The finish is long and refined, with lingering notes of dark fruits, spices and a distinct mineral quality that reflects the Dão terroir.
