Roquette & Cazes Tinto is a Douro wine of excellent aromatic complexity, with notes of very clean red fruits, elegant spices and soft balsamic notes. In the mouth it starts very elegantly, evolving into a wine of excellent volume and structure composed of velvety tannins. A very involving wine, which ends up very fresh and persistent.

The Roquette & Cazes project is above all a meeting of two friends: Jorge Roquette from Quinta do Crasto and Jaen-Michel Cazes from Château Lynch-Bages.
In 2002, the two families decided to create a company to produce great wines that were marked by the natural characteristics of the Douro and the experience of Cazes who have been making wines in Bordeaux for about a century.
A wine adventure “To make a great wine with the Douro grape varieties, a wine that shows structure and complexity, that possesses the power and the sun of Portugal combined with the elegance of Bordeaux”, said Jaen-Michel Cazes as part of this adventure.
