Barco Negro Portugese Red
A small lot of bold Douro red, poured in Commack.
The story behind Barco Negro
Douro reds come from Portugal's terraced river valley, where native grapes like Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca and Tinta Roriz grow on steep schist slopes. The style is typically deep in color, firm in tannin and full of dark fruit, with a dry, savory finish that makes it a natural partner for grilled and roasted food.
We stock Barco Negro Douro in Commack in a very small quantity, one to two bottles at a time, so it is a bottle to ask about by name at the counter or by phone.
