Don Guerino Gran Reserva Traços 2017 300cl / Double Magnum!!

£159.00

Previously available only in standard 75cl format, we have launched Don Guerino’s flagship red in Double Magnum (300cl) – a first for any Brazilian wine in the UK!

As well as being a fine wine, the substantial bottle will serve as a talking point and probably too as the centrepiece of any dining table..

Decanter magazine, in October 2019, described this four* grape blend as having ‘elegant aromas with notes of ripe cherry, plum and a hint of spice…ripe and juicy with crisp acidity..and sufficient sturdy structure to age well’. Read more below.

Each bottle is supplied in its own wooden case – see image.

*Teroldego, Tannat, Merlot & Malbec (2015 vintage also included Cab Sauv & Ancellotta but not Malbec – see tasting note below)
