The 2019 Touriga Nacional was aged for 12 months in 40% new French oak. It comes in at 14.1% alcohol. This is a nice value point in the lineup, perhaps the best, although it depends on how you look at it. (The Reserva, for instance, offers a lot more distinction for another $10.) It's fresh, fruity and delightful. It's not meant to be powerful or complex, but it certainly has some structure, and it has just enough concentration to seem moderately substantial in the mouth. Plus, it tastes great. That's always a good thing. Drink this just a few degrees cooler than normal, and it may be a big hit this summer, but it won't die too young. In fact, it should hold well for several years. It's hard to lean up on the score of this wine too much because this moment already seems pretty much like its peak moment, but it sure does the job today.
