A concentrated red made up of a blend of 43% touriga franca, 40% touriga nacional, 7% tinta cao, 5% tinta roriz and 5% sousao. This has ripe aromas of prunes and spices with violets and licorice. Medium- to full-bodied and very intense with plenty of dark-fruit flavors. Aged in 50% new oak. Better in a year or two.

The red 2021 Quinta da Leda was produced with a blend of 45% Touriga Francesa, 40% Touriga Nacional, 7% Tinto Căo (for its freshness) and 5% Sousăo from the vineyards on their large property, some co-fermented depending on the quantities, and it matured in French oak barrels, 50% of them new for 18 months, including malolactic. It's quite toasty and smoky, still very young and in need of patience. It has structure and tannin, and it's a wine that needs time and/or powerful food. It has contained ripeness, 13.5% alcohol and mellow acidity. 67,000 bottles produced. It was bottled in May 2023 and released in September 2025.

An elegant red, fresh and poised, with fine-grained tannins forming a well-tailored frame for flavors of blackberry paste, cherry pâte de fruit, herbed olive and cocoa powder. Long and focused, with spice, espresso and iron notes on the finish. Touriga Franca, Touriga Nacional, Tinto Căo and Tinta Roriz. Drink now through 2035. 5,711 cases made, 300 cases imported.

A single-vineyard bottling, the 2021 Quinta Da Leda is made from Touriga Franca, Touriga Nacional, Tinta Cao, and Tinta Roriz, the grapes destemmed and fermented separately. A dry, sinewy texture and plush tannins give way to a refined and lengthy palate of tobacco, pine, and lavender, with medium-bodied ripeness and tart black fruit. Agee 18 months in French oak, half new, it's a remarkably elegant expression of the place that will age well. Drink now through 2033.
