The Story Behind the Bottle
"SSSHHH! Keep this lovely little number quiet" says one of the 5-star reviews for Lusus. We're sorry to that happy customer but the cat's out of the bag ... you can enjoy full Portuguese flavour with lower alcohol. It's all thanks to some expert winemaking. With 15 unbroken generations devoted to Portuguese wine, the Van Zeller family is synonymous with quality. Firstly for world-class vintage port – they founded Quinta do Noval in 1715 (rated among the greatest wines of the last century). Then they led the field in Douro wines. Lusus is a fruity new red from the team. It’s a blend of native varieties Touriga Franca, Tinta Roriz, Tinta Barocca and Touriga Nacional. An easy-going red wine, ideal for sipping on its own or with grilled meats.
