Invincible Red 2021

The wine is produced from vineyards where the Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca, Tinta Amarela, Tinta Barroca, Rufete and Tinta Roriz grape varieties were planted. It is a so-called field blend , as the different grapes are grown together. All the vines are over 80 years old. Fermented partly in open cement tanks and partly in oak barrels. Aged in French oak barrels, partly new, for 18 months.

It has an intense, dark ruby ​​red color. Complex and rich aromas of dark fruits, spices, minerality and elegant notes of wood. On the palate, it is full-bodied, intense and deep, with great structure and a long finish, revealing even more 'nuances'. An extraordinary wine experience.

Houlberg Vinblog Points: Now the intensity and complexity have been raised even further, bringing a warm, umami note with hints of nuts, oak barrels, old railway sleepers, teak and mahogany, toast, coffee and cocoa beans, vanilla, dark chocolate and a deep dark fruit with blackberry, blackcurrant and black cherries… even a hint of cherry liqueur, all wrapped up in a velvety, smooth and creamy texture.

And this is exactly how the wine tastes: velvety and creamy… with a well-balanced acidity, very elegant, vibrant, light and fruity, with notes of cherry, raspberry, rhubarb and blackcurrant. It has a certain degree of dryness, crisp and smooth tannins, a pure and fresh character… beautifully composed. 94 points.
