Abastado, meaning “wealthy,” is the name chosen by Jose for his top cuvée. Produced from 80% Touriga Nacional, 15% Touriga Franca and 5% Souzão, it is a rich concentrated wine. Deep plum in colour, it has mellow coconut aromas complemented with dark fruits. More rich ripe dark fruits emerge in the mouth with notes of vanilla. It is dense, round mid palate with a grainy texture and nice structure. Drinking nicely now, it should mature well over the next decade. Matured in new French oak for 12 months, it was bottled in September 2020.
