Classic Douro red wine from old vines
The Invincible Número Um Tinto is the red sister of the white wine of the same name – and follows the same philosophy: It is a true Field Blend made from an old field blend, grown in vineyards whose vines are over 30 years old. Here, in the legendary Douro Valley, where the schist slopes steeply down to the river and the summers are scorching hot, the vines acquire the depth and concentration that have made this region world-famous. Companhia de Vinhos Invencível processes the grapes of all three varieties together, drawing on one of Portugal's oldest winemaking traditions.
Three Portuguese classics combined
The cuvée brings together the stars of the Douro: Touriga Nacional, Portugal's royal grape variety, brings floral elegance, depth, and firm tannins. Touriga Franca provides rich fruit aromas, a velvety texture, and intense color. Tinta Roriz – known as Tempranillo in Spain – complements with its spicy berry fruit and fine acidity. In the glass, the Invincible Tinto reveals a seductive bouquet of dark fruits, cherry, and delicate wood spice.
On the palate, a multi-layered composition of juicy red fruit and ripe cherries unfolds, supported by a fine tannin structure that culminates in a lively, long finish with a subtle woody note.
Traditional lagar fermentation and gentle oak aging
Part of the grapes are fermented in the traditional lagar – those flat granite troughs in which the grapes were once trodden by foot and are still gently extracted today. The remaining part matures in stainless steel tanks with regular pump-overs to gently extract color, tannins, and aromas from the grape skins. The wine then matures for 16 months in old French oak barrels – long enough to gain structure and complexity, but restrained enough to bring the fruit and character of the old vines to the fore. An ideal companion to lamb, game, braised meat dishes, or full-flavored hard cheeses.
Certified vegan
The Invincible Número Um Tinto 2023 bears the international V-Label and is completely vegan – an expression of the artisanal care with which Companhia de Vinhos Invencível works.
