Quadrus 2016 is a full-bodied Touriga Nacional with some Tinta Roriz added to the mix. On the palate, the wine is dry with ripe dark plum, dark chocolate, cinnamon and ginger spice flavours. Well-priced and perfect with BBQ ribs and burgers from the grill.

Red food pairings: slow-braised smoked brisket, roast prime rib, venison stew.

Reviews and Ratings

Quadrus 2016 is a full-bodied Touriga Nacional with some Tinta Roriz added to it. The wine grapes for this vintage were sourced from the Douro wine region, known for it's delicious sweet Port wines, but also superb, dry, full-bodied reds like this example with dark berry, plum, cake baking and pepper spice flavours rich and full on the palate. Enjoy with a meat-lover's pizza. - Community Wine Reviews

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.

The Financial Times of London

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.
