Barca Velha (Magnum) 2011

Douro · Douro Superior

RedFullBy the bottlePremium

Complex and expressive, with ripe black plum, blackberry, and cassis layered with balsamic notes, cedar, tobacco box, and wild herbs. Full-bodied yet elegant, it combines rich dark fruit with vibrant acidity and dense, polished tannins. The long, mineral finish lingers with dark cocoa, spice, and graphite.

Origin · Douro · Douro Superior

Douro Superior is the easternmost and hottest sub-region of the Douro Valley, extending to the Spanish border. Its hot, dry climate and lower rainfall produce powerful, concentrated wines, with schist and granite soils yielding both premium Port and increasingly acclaimed dry reds and whites from estates like Quinta do Vale Meão.
