Portalegre Quinta da Fonte Souto Tinto 2019

45% Alicante Bouchet—oooh, a teinturier—plus 30% Syrah (which makes its presence known in smoky, meaty notes) and 25% Alfrocheiro. Hearty wine, textured without being, say, thick. There’s a bit of raisination on the nose countered by salinity, a little licorice and a lot of smoked meat. On the palate, it keeps on with that contrast being heady but also vibrant. There’s some silky chocolate vibes underneath it all. A delight for dinner, but you can sip it solo if you so choose. — a month ago

Quinta do Vesuvio (Symington)

Douro Red Blend 2015

Solid but unremarkable Douro. Deep dark brooding wine with plum flavor. Unfortunately, I did not have time to decant it and consumed it immediately upon opening. I suspect this wine would open up with an hour of air. Smooth and elegant without decanting but one- dimensional. — 2 months ago

Chryseia Douro Red Blend 2020

Lighter in body, heady in aromatics. Graceful and cranberry-y and I want more, more more. — a month ago

9.0

Very nice. As some here have said it has ripe red and black fruit aromas and Flavours almost raspberry jam at times and at the same time zippy acidity on the palate #douro — a month ago
