Passágem 2023 Douro 'Reserve' Red
As the vines have grown older, and Jorge has moderated his oak regime (now 80% used and 20% new), this Reserve Red had gained ever more finesse and balance. He has also tweaked the encépagement, with the lighter, more perfumed Touriga Franca playing a more important role.
