Red Wine from Tejo, Portugal
Falua is synonymous with a journey through wine, as an ambassador for Portugal around the world. Falua was founded in 1994 with the aim of asserting itself as a reference in the production of wines from the Tejo region and which quickly grew to other regions. In 2017, VITAS Portugal ‚ a subsidiary of the Roullier Group present in our country since 1994 ‚ acquired Falua. The Roullier Group‚ interest in Falua's activity originated from the idea of creating a gateway to the global wine market. With more than 25 years of history in the national and international markets, Falua has a vast portfolio spread throughout the world.
Profile:
In the nose the minerality and floral notes of violets are highlighted as well as aromas of black fruit, plums and blackberries, finishing with hints of eucalyptus leaf notes. Elegant, intense and of high persistence, this wine has high-quality tannins that are very present and well involved, which give it a great structure and a high aging potential.
