HALF BOTTLE
WINEMAKER'S NOTES:
Young, deep ruby color. Intense, rich and fruity nose, full of pure blackberry, cassis, cherry and plum aromas intertwined with hints of spice. In the mouth it is full-bodied and round, with a soft and velvety texture, balanced by firm tannins that fill the mouth. The juicy black fruit flavors continue on the delicious, rich finish.
This wine pairs well with strong-flavored hard cheeses–a good farmhouse cheddar or an aged gouda would be perfect. It is delicious with desserts made with dark chocolate or berries.
TASTING NOTES:
Pretty violet nose. Fragrant, soft and fleshy on the palate with attractive primary fruit and firm tannic grip. Finishes lengthily. Should age well. Blend - 20% Touriga Nacional, 20% Touriga Franca, 20% Tinta Roriz
- Decanter, 93 pts.
Very expressive, with generous plum, blueberry and açaí berry flavors bursting forth. Shows a polished structure, with a nice jolt of black licorice on the finish. Tasty.
- Wine Spectator, 90 pts.
