Previous bottle a bit disappointing. This one is spot on with great fruit aromas, balance and taste. Medium body. Let it decant and monitor.lots of oak tobacco leather vanilla cherry red fruit cedar dark fruit blackberry blackcurrant pepper — 5 days ago

Fruit heavy. Lacking in balance (thin). OK acidity and tannins Ok value but a disappointment from Portugal. That said, its a decent find for £10. cherry blackberry tobacco. Oak is not fully integrated — 2 months ago

Falling in love with this wine again. It was brilliant a few years ago, and I was worried it could be at peak now, but 9 years of age and still going strong!  This is surely one of the best values I have ever found @ €6 during Paris foire du Vin. Easily could fetch €60+ in a different bottle. Undergrowth and oak influence is strong and balanced. I feel like you can almost taste the earthy terroir's influence.  Notes of 🍒, cassis, framboise. Thick, medium to full bodied and solid acidity. Potential for aging a bit more.  — 2 months ago

Enjoying on our overwater bungalow in Bora Bora. Everything right, fun but not too memorable. Solid notes of toast, green apple brioche pear lemon biscuit. Nice balance solid acidity. Would try again but wouldn't search too far. — 4 months ago
