Reviews and Ratings

Animus is the soul of Portugal's Douro Valley wine region. Touriga Franca (40 %)Touriga Nacional (30%) and Tinta Roriz (30%) are hand harvested from our Cima Corgo vineyards and blended and aged without oak for a smooth, fruit forward, approachable blend. All of our wines are certified Vegan and Gluten free and several vintages have earned the coveted Best Buy Recommendation from Wine Enthusiast.

Unquenchable by Natalie MacLean

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.

There are very few people in the wine world who "get it" and Natalie is one of those who brings more fun to a buttoned-up and stodgy game.
