The Prats & Symington Prazo de Roriz 2018 is a distinguished red blend from the Douro Valley, Portugal. This wine is a collaboration between the Symington family, renowned for their Port production, and Bruno Prats of Bordeaux, known for his expertise in crafting fine wines. Sourced from the historic Quinta de Roriz estate, which dates back to the 18th century, this wine reflects a commitment to quality and tradition. Wine Description In the glass, the Prazo de Roriz 2018 presents a deep purple hue. The aromatic profile is rich and expressive, featuring notes of raspberry, black currant, blackberry, black cherry, black olive, and rosehip. On the palate, it is dry and full-bodied, with medium acidity and ripe, medium-plus tannins. Flavours mirror the nose, culminating in a medium-plus, raspberry-infused finish. The wine is complex and brooding, yet maintains a sense of freshness and vibrancy. It is crafted from a blend of traditional Portuguese grape varieties, including Touriga Franca, Touriga Nacional, Tinta Roriz, and Tinta Barroca, and is aged for four to five months in French oak barrels to enhance its structure without overshadowing the fruit. Accolades James Suckling – 92 points Wine Spectator – 90 points Wine Enthusiast – 89 points Food Pairing This wine pairs excellently with grilled, stewed, or roasted meats, such as beef, lamb, or game. Its robust structure and rich fruit profile complement hearty dishes, enhancing the overall dining experience.
