Quinta do Pinto’s 2017 Grande Escolha represents the best blend of the 2017 harvest and shows the excellence of the Pinto family’s estate vineyard. A unique, richly flavored wine with an elegant and distinctive aroma and great aging potential, the 2017 Grande Escolha is the result of handpicked grapes, carefully selected from the best bunches of Merlot, Petit Verdot, and Touriga Nacional. On the nose, this wine offers an intense aroma of ripe fruit and mint notes that are perfectly integrated with hints of spice and herbs. The palate shows a velvety texture with balanced acidity and minerality with fine and polished tannins. This is a wine with depth, elegance and finesse. Enjoy!
