Your wine character
This is one of the nine Caractère wine characters.
Comforting
You can exhale
A good bed, familiar music, an unhurried breakfast. You appreciate an evening you don’t have to prepare for, with nobody you need to impress. Sometimes the best plan is to get comfortable and stop trying to improve things.
Your wine character is Comforting. A wine for home cooking and a conversation with someone who doesn’t mind if you’re tired. There’s still something left on the stove. You don’t have to answer the phone.
A Portuguese example
Antão Vaz · Vidigueira, Alentejo
Try a ripe, gently oak-aged Antão Vaz from Vidigueira: a full-bodied white with tropical fruit and tangerine notes. We'd choose a generous, rounded version for Comforting, with enough substance to sit happily beside dinner at home.
