Portugal in a bottle! Cuvée Chumbado is a typical red that expresses the full potential of the fresh, aromatic Baga grape variety. On the nose as on the palate, we savor its broad aromatic palette of cocoa, cinnamon, white pepper and redcurrant. Touriga Nacional adds structure and body to this lovely cuvée.

Worse than white. I didn't like it at all. Frankly, I don't understand why a site of such quality would offer such a domaine (or at least these 2 cuvées, which aren't cheap, by the way!).
