2018 Kelman Touriga Nacional, Dão

What it is: A classic red blend from the Dão, made from the region’s traditional varieties and focused on balance, freshness, and everyday drinkability.

Why it matters: Practicing organic and vegan, this wine is vinified with care to preserve the identity of each grape, with partial aging in used French oak adding subtle depth without overshadowing the fruit.

Tasting notes: Bright ruby in color with aromas of ripe red fruit, wild berries, and gentle floral spice. Smooth-bodied and well balanced, with lively natural acidity, a mineral edge that brings freshness, and a harmonious, food-friendly finish.
