Natalie's Score: 90/100

This juicy and soft-tannin red wine is made from the Periquita red wine grape which is also known as Castelão or João de Santarém. The grape is found primarily in the south coastal regions but is grown all over Portugal and is sometimes used in Port wine production.A full-bodied red wine from the Vinho Regional Peninsula De Setúbal. Robust, with aromas of black fruit and toasty oak. Excellent value. Pair with roast beef.

Food pairings: braised beef dishes, turkey, soft cheese, roasted pork, lamb.

Reviews and Ratings

Periquita Reserva (2015) is a well-priced, robust and full-bodied red blend of Castelão, Touriga Nacional and Touriga Francesa red wine grapes from the Setubal wine region in Portugal. Look for rich dark cherry, plum and vanilla flavours on the palate. Delish on its own or pair with grilled pork chops. - Community Wine Reviews
