Luis Seabra Vinhos Xisto Ilimitado Douro Red Blend 2018

$26

A birght, peppery field blend of primarily Touriga Franca, Tinta Amarela, Tinto Roriz, Tinta Barroca andamp; Rufete from the Douro, Portugal. andnbsp;Luis Seabra was the former winemaker at the renowned Niepoort winery. A great entry to the style of wines Luis is searching for here and an extremely compelling wine for the money.andnbsp;This is from old vines (planted in the 60's and 80's) grown at 1200-2000 feet, all on schist soil. andnbsp;Huge temperature swings from day to night give this mineral-driven red an appealing freshness.andnbsp;.andnbsp;

Quite the blend I feel like if an açaí bowl, with all the fun garnishes, including flowers, was made wine, it would be this.

Normally relish the Seabra wines but this was too young and not my favorite. Dark fruit, sun dried tomato, and savory herbs but not much flesh. Better the second day and will check in again in a year or two

Wasn't sure about this at first. Semi dry but this young vintage is pretty heavy on the tannins. After a few sips I realized, naw, this was made to be consumed with food. It played beautifully with smoky Bosnian cabbage rolls and a dill-heavy potato salad.
