Clean, pure fruit dominates the nose, with black raspberry, plum, and cassis leaping from the glass. On the palate, fresh and fruit forward, with lingering spice and minerality, balanced acidity and soft, well integrated tannin providing structure.
Rabelo Cuvee Roman, referring to the long history of Roman influence in the Douro, is a handselected blend meant to give a picture of the archetypal Douro red. Using only indigenous varietals, the Roman showcases the best of every Douro subzone.
Rabelo Cuvee Roman shows a freshness that pairs equally well with grilled or roasted meat as with roasted poultry and sharp cheeses.
