A traditional Portuguese (Dao) red blend made from nine different local varieties. Aromas of red and black berries, leather and earth. Red and black fruit also on the palate with additional notes of tobacco and wet gravel. Medium-plus body and finish with a hint of smoky oak. Nicely balanced. Thanks for bringing this one, Aaron B! — 6 months ago

I’m not too fond of the blandness in a lot of Portuguese reds, but this style plays to its strong suits: unabashed joy in a chilled red, with a fine grained berry texture & an inky dark cherry fruit palate. Nothing complicated but something a bit more elegant & long. — 5 months ago
Medium-full. Drinks nicely after airing out. Would enjoy again! — 7 months ago

Shows a pale yellow color. The nose opens with lemon, apple, and peach, with a hint of vanilla. On the palate, there’s a burst of citrus, especially grapefruit, along with a touch of minerality and bright acidity.
