It is unusual to find Touriga Franca as a single varietal wine, as it’s usually a building block in blends, so Waitrose have done well to add this to their Loved & Found range, which focuses on unearthing lesser known varieties. The herbal, spicy, dark cherry nose leads into a full-bodied medley of forest fruits, underpinned by a tangy blackberry acid line with a long finish. A winter wine to pair with a hearty stew.
