Quinta dos Murças Assobio Tinto 2021

The Quinta dos Murças Assobio Red wine is a blend of three popular local red grape varieties: Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca and Tinta Roriz. The vineyards for this wine are to be found at the edge of Quinta dos Murças’ boundaries, where there is a valley formed by steep slopes. Here, it is primarily north-facing and more protected from the sun and the plots planted at higher altitudes boast unique characteristics. 10% of the blend is aged in oak for six months resulting in a wine that has a lively and intense aroma, dominated by red fruits. The palate has good concentration, with a pronounced freshness and elegance.

Vintage Availability

We endeavour to display accurate and current vintages on all our wines listed on the website; however, from time to time stocks of the vintage listed do become exhausted. If this is the case with your order we will always contact you to recommend another vintage of the same wine, if it is still available. If the vintage of a wine is important to you then please leave a note at checkout advising us of this. 

 

Stock Availability

As we are retail stockists, selling from our Ledston shop as well as online, it makes it difficult for us to show a 'real-time' inventory of our wines and spirits online. As such, very occasionally, a wine may be out of stock that the website has allowed you to order.

To ensure a timely delivery, we are happy to substitute your order with a similar wine of equal or higher value and at no additional cost to you!

If this is not an acceptable solution please advise us in the 'Add A Comment' section at the checkout.
