Tasting Notes

This 2023 Silk and Spice Red Blend shows a deep intense ruby color with a bright red rim, opening with ripe cooked black fruit, plum, blackberry, vanilla, mocha, oak, chocolate, cinnamon, pepper, and licorice. The palate is rich, full, and polished, with balanced tannins and acidity, smooth texture, sweet spice, and a long rounded finish.

Food Paring

Pair this smooth Portuguese red blend with grilled meat, cheeseburgers, lasagna, pizza, or other tomato-based dishes to complement its ripe black fruit and soft spice. It is also a versatile bottle for weeknight dinners, barbecue spreads, and casual gatherings when you want a rich, easy-to-enjoy red.

"This wine, a celebration of the Portuguese seafaring discoveries of the 15th century, is ripe with balanced black fruits and a spice aroma. Its smooth texture and richness mean it will age quickly. Drink from 2026."
