Loaded with a pure core of blueberry, boysenberry and black plum fruit flavor, this bright and focused red is well-tailored and harmonious. The generous fruit is embroidered with a a lovely range of milled white pepper, anise and paprika, violet, thyme and lavender accents, mocha, toast and mineral notes. Sleek tannins are fine and chalky in texture on the long, long finish. Touriga Nacional and Touriga Franca. Drink now through 2042.

Country

Portugal

Benefiting from both the hot, dry Iberian climate as well as brisk Atlantic winds, Portugal is a perfectly situated country for vineyard cultivation and wine production. With a wine making history which stretches back thousands of years, it comes as little surprise that wine plays an important role in the cultural identity and practices of the country. The Phoenicians, the Carthaginians, the Greeks and the Romans all had a hand in forming Portugal as an important center for wine production, and over the millennia, this resulted in each region of this beautiful part of Europe producing its own distinctive wines easily identifiable and separate from neighboring Spain's. Today, the varied terroir and climate across Portugal allows a great range of wines to be made each year, from the fresh and dry Vinho Verde wines to the famous and widely drunk fortified Port wines, and many in between.

Region

Douro

The undisputed jewel in Portugal's crown is the beautiful wine region of Douro, located along the banks of the river from where it gets its name. The region itself is renowned around the world for its range of wonderfully aromatic fortified wines, as well as a wide variety of still red and white wines made from native grape varietals. Wineries in the Douro region utilize a huge amount of different local grapes for their characterful wines, but generally the most popular are made from Tinta Roriz, a rich and flavorful red wine grape related to Spain's flagship Tempranillo. However, there are plenty of different red and white grape varietals used in the region, all benefiting from the excellent hot weather and mineral rich terroir which characterizes the Douro valleys.

The 2022 Chryseia feels very young and undeveloped, with plenty of aromas from the élevage in oak barrels. The wine is now vinified at Quinta do Roriz with prolonged maceration in the Bordeaux style and matured in new 400-liter French oak barrels. It's a wine that is designed for the medium to long term, dominated in its youth by creamy oak, ripe berry fruit and notes of aromatic Mediterranean herbs and flowers. It's medium to full-bodied with contained ripeness and alcohol (14%) and very fine and elegant tannins. This is a very nicely crafted Douro red, perhaps a little predictable and not very exciting, but very good indeed.

James Suckling

#24 in Top 100 Wines of Portugal, 2025. Very attractive nose of blackberries, violets and graphite with dried herb undertones and a hint of tasty oak. The palate is medium- to full-bodied, super polished and subtle, with vibrant fruit and enveloping polished tannins. The wood is very well integrated. 75% touriga nacional and 25% touriga franca. Drink or hold.

Winery Notes

A rich and powerful red with astonishing roundness of tannins. On the nose the fruit is upfront with notes of plum, blackcurrant and a touch of mocha and dark chocolate. The wood is perfectly integrated. The silky and velvety tannins are followed by a very fresh and long aftertaste. A seductive wine even at this early stage with a great ageing potential.
