Tinto Palace Hotel Bussaco 2018 is a traditional Portuguese red wine produced from a blend of Baga from the Bairrada region and Touriga Nacional from the Dão. Since 1917, these wines have been vinified using the same methods, maturing for 12 months in French oak barrels to achieve a balance of elegance and longevity. The 2018 vintage shows ripe black fruit, violets and spice on the nose, leading into a structured palate with fine tannins and fresh acidity. This release continues to be one of Portugal`s most sought-after historic blends, celebrated for its ability to develop complex savoury layers over several decades in the bottle.

The 2018 Tinto Reservado was produced with Baga from Bairrada and Touriga Nacional from Dão. It fermented in open granite lagar and matured in a high percentage of new 300-liter French oak barrels for 14 months. When young, this wine tends to have a creamy nose with some lactic notes, sweet spices and ripe berry aromas and flavors. It comes in at 13.5% alcohol, with good ripeness but without excess and with good freshness and acidity that provide balance. When older, it tends to deliver meat-like notes, hints of iron and blood and an earthy, slightly rustic character. Still very young and juicy, it is medium-bodied and has fine, slightly dusty tannins. 11,067 bottles and 213 magnums produced.
