Real Companhia Velha 2006 Porca de Murça Reserva Red (Douro)
- $18
Parcels of old vines produce this complex wine. It has dark black berry fruits while still retaining freshness over the bone-dry tannins. There is a depth to the structure, pushing the wine but not going over the top. Age for 2–3 years.

Real Companhia Velha 2007 Evel Grande Reserva Red (Douro)
- Cellar Selection
- Online Exclusive
- $35
One of the best wines to come out of the Real Companhia, this finely structured wine shows distinct austerity and minerality as well as dark, young tannins and packed black fruits. The balance is all there, a wine that keeps the wood in check, allowing the great fruits to come through.
