Portuguese Field blend of Tints Barroca, Tinta Roriz and Rufete. Dark ruby color with a thin garnet rim. Aromas and flavors of black and red bramble berries, baking spices and roasted meat. Quite concentrated and bold. Touch of oak, vanilla and dill on the long and lingering finish. Nicely integrated (soft) tannins and medium-plus acidity. Nice intensity. Thank you for opening this wine, Ron B! — 4 days ago

Pale straw in color; peaches, rose petals, and citrus zest on the nose; medium acidity; tastes like lemon, perfume, and lychee (I think). Nellie says it's ok. A little too tart for her tastes. I like it and I think it will pair well with ceviche. — 4 months ago

Popped and poured; enjoyed over two days. Best on Day 2 after it brightened up. The 2008 pours a deep garnet with a near opaque core; medium+ viscosity with moderate staining of the tears and signs of sediment. On the nose, the wine is vinous with notes of blackberry compote, coffee, Werther’s Chocolate, tobacco leaf, leather, teriyaki, demi-glace, and dry earth. On the palate the wine is dry with medium+ tannin and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes on the nose. The finish is long and slightly savory. This is delicious and has to be one of the great values in Ribera del Duero. Drink now through 2032+. — 24 days ago

It took a while to figured out what sort of big boy this wine was. Pristine and so young. Still bright and perfectly composed. Incredible for a wine made for the first time. Such a real “fuoriclasse”. — 18 days ago
