In the glass
Aroma: forest fruit, chocolate, coffee
Palate: highly structured, complex, persistent close
Deep red with forest fruit lifted by chocolate and coffee, highly structured and complex, the cooperative's flagship red.
What it pairs with
- Grilled beef ribs A structured Grande Reserva needs a rich cut with charred edges.
- Roast wild boar Coffee and chocolate notes complement dark game meat.
- Aged hard cheese A firm cheese softens the tannin and lengthens the finish.
With cheese
Queijo Serra da Estrela Velho
Our pick Velho is strong to slightly strong, lightly peppery and salty, with a persistent aroma. A Touriga Nacional-led Dão red has the structure to hold up beside it, and the salt and aged fat of the cheese take some edge off the wine's grip.
Queijo Serra da Estrela Velho
Our pick Velho is strong, salty and lightly peppery, with a persistent aroma. A Dão Reserva or Grande Reserva red blend, held back for longer ageing before release, has the depth to meet it, and the aged ewe's milk fat softens the wine's tannin.
