Pombal do Vesuvio Red is a powerful and characterful red wine from the Douro, sourced from the prestigious Quinta do Vesuvio estate of Symington Family Estates. This wine reflects the region's unique terroir and is made with carefully selected local grape varieties that deliver deep expression and authentic character.

The grapes grow on slopes with optimal sun exposure, where they can ripen slowly and fully. The wine is then aged in French oak barrels, which contributes to additional structure, complexity, and subtle wood integration without overpowering the fruit. The result is a wine that combines power with elegance.

Tasting notes:
- On the nose: intense aromas of ripe black and red fruit, such as blackberries and blackcurrants, complemented by spicy notes, light floral nuances and subtle woody aromas.
- On the palate: full and structured, with juicy dark fruit, refined tannins and a fresh acidity that provides balance and length.
- Finish: long, powerful and harmonious, with lingering fruit and spicy notes.

Food pairing: This wine pairs perfectly with grilled red meat, game dishes, stews, and dishes with rich sauces. It's also ideal with aged cheeses and flavorful meat dishes during a hearty dinner.
