Prats & Symington 2016 Chryseia Douro 750ml

"An impressive red that shows finesse to the generous profile of cherry tart, red plum and raspberry gelée notes, cast with licorice, Earl Grey tea, pepper and graphite details. Aromas of violet and mocha echo on the tannic finish."

Score: 95 points - Gillian Sciaretta, Wine Spectator, 2019

The 2016 Prats & Symington Chryseia is a monumental red wine from Portugal's renowned Douro Valley. A masterful blend of Touriga Nacional and Touriga Franca, it pours a deep garnet and reveals an alluring bouquet of ripe blackcurrant, dark chocolate, and subtle earthy spice. On the palate, this full-bodied and elegant wine delivers a profound depth of dark fruit flavours perfectly integrated with fine-grained, velvety tannins and a vibrant acidity that drives a remarkably long, fresh finish. This structured and opulent Douro red pairs exceptionally well with a rich venison roast or a hearty, slow-cooked beef stew.
