Xisto Ilimitado is a nuanced taste of the new Douro style, bursting with notes of red and blue fruits, wet rock, and floral hints. In classic Portuguese style, it is a blend of many native varieties: 30% Touriga Franca, and 20% each of Tinta Amarela and Tinta Roriz. Smaller amounts of Rufete, Tinta Barroca, Malvasia and Donzelinho make up the rest.
Luis Seabra is a pioneering wine-maker, with a modest 8 hectares spread across 3 different regions: Vinho Verde, Dao and Douro. He has been hailed as one of the leaders of the recent Portuguese wine renaissance, creating a fascinating range of wine from native varieties and old vines. After 20-odd years in the business, Luis founded his own winery in 2013 and has been making waves in the Portuguese wine industry ever since.
This wine is a bright garnet colour, with an equally bright and youthful character. It is dry and full-bodied on the palate, with vivacious acidity and finely-grained tannins. Look for flavours of pomegranate, red cherry and slate, balanced out by elements of white pepper and green herbs. Perfect for those looking to explore new red grapes and new regions. Consider pairing this Douro red with salted cod, smoked cheese, or red meats.
