Tasting note

The Symingtons have the largest vineyard holdings in the Douro, producing Altano from a modern, relatively flat vineyard in the Douro Superior ... The Altano is bright and youthful, showing some heat and plenty of tarry strawberry-jam flavor ... a more modern and fresh interpretation of the Douro. (Tasting panel, wineandspiritsmagazine.com, Sept. 9, 2015)

An ideal wine to unwind and relax with at home, or for visiting with friends. Pairs well with a wide variety of dishes. Altano reflects its Douro origins perfectly with its generous aromas of wildflowers, full-bodied structure of fresh and assertive fruit and spicy peppery tones held together seamlessly.

*Available only at the BC Liquor Stores Festival Wine Shop (Vancouver International Wine Festival Tasting Room) from February 25, 26, and 27. Festival Wine Shop is open to tasting room patrons. Same day tasting tickets must be presented for entry.
