Buy Wine with Touriga Nacional
Touriga Nacional is a variety original from the Dâo region. It is fertile, vigorous and resistant, it has moderate performance although it is prone to millerandage. Its clusters and thick skinned berries are average in size. Touriga Nacional has medium ripening, is sensitive to powdery mildew and, to a lesser extent, to downy mildew and botrytis cinerea.
Touriga Nacional is, without any doubt, the most representative variety of Porto wines and is currently the flagship variety in Portugal for red wine production. Touriga Nacional wines have intense colour, are concentrated, tannic, rich in black fruits and very perfumed (bergamot, rosemary, rockrose and violets). As wines result so intense, sometimes this variety is blended with others to obtain smoother wines. Touriga Nacional's good acidity grants wines good ageing potential and at the same time it is suitable for long ageing in oak barrels.
