Black cherry and plum fruit-forward aromas and on the palate with a little spiciness too, a lush mouth feel with balanced acidity and soft tannins. This is what I want in a Portuguese red!!

Also, love a detailed label!!

Very tasty aged Portuguese red. If I had it blind, I would guess Northern Spanish - Ribera del Duero or Rioja. Smooth and slightly musty/earthy from the age (got some cork crumbles). Opens pretty quickly, with concentrated red fruit and some blackberry. Pleasant tannic grip with a soft texture. Bold flavor throughout, big body (14.5% abv), some pepper and dry grass on a savory finish. Nice for a reasonable price. — a year ago
