Flavor Profile
Portugal's wine heritage often takes a back seat to its famed port, but Encostas do Coa showcases the country's diverse vinicultural landscape. Named after the picturesque Coa River slopes, a UNESCO World Heritage site, these rocky terrains host lesser-known grape varieties like Rufete, Touriga Franca, and Tinta Roriz, lending uniqueness to this blend. Hailing from the Beira Interior region, this ruby-colored wine offers a fruit-forward aroma and a palate dominated by rounded fruits and smooth tannins, making it an approachable and memorable expression of Portugal's winemaking prowess beyond its iconic dessert wine.
Encostas do Coa pairs excellently with a variety of hearty dishes, including succulent beef steaks, tender lamb chops, and flavorful game meats. The wine's fruit-forward aroma and smooth tannins complement the rich flavors of these meats, creating a delightful culinary experience that highlights the depth and complexity of the wine.
