Tasting Notes from the Curator

Quinta da Bica is a famous winery in Portugal and is rich in history, being one of the first wine bottlers in the Dao region. Wines made in the Dao region are made at high altitude. This imbues Quinta da Bica Vinhas Velhas 2015 with a strong robust flavor that is more acidic than sweet. Made from a variety of grapes including the nationally acclaimed Touriga Nacional, the wine is a dry red. This wine ages extremely well and can be stored for a prolonged period to enhance its richness.

Pairings

As a bold red, Quinta da Bica Vinhas Velhas 2015 pairs very well with red meat. The gamier the meat the better, so you don’t need to limit yourself to matching this with beef. It will work splendidly with the deep flavor of lamb or venison. Accompanying sauces for these meats as well as stews are greatly enriched by adding some of this wine; it can even be used to marinade these meats before cooking.

This wine can also be paired with poultry, the gamier the better, and matches duck very well. It is suggested that if matched with chicken, the dish be grilled to bring out a charred chicken flavor.
