So smooth and rich! Brought back from Cartuxa winery in Portugal. — 3 years ago
This was great. Smooth and dry but very well balanced. Definitely smoother than any other Alentejo red I’ve had. A bit of spice with dark berries. Looking forward to revisiting — 4 years ago
Full body and well balanced wine. Purple fruit, hint of cacao. Easy wine, light on tannins. — 6 years ago
New to wine. This was one of the first quality reds I was recommended. Should age well and has decent tannins. — a month ago

140 bottles of this treasure were found in the winery's cellar around 2011 before it was reconditioned, sealed with fresh corks, and released into the world a few years later. A portion of these made their way to the Portland market in 2017 thanks to a fantastic local distributor, Casa Bruno.
Popped and poured - pristine cork beneath the wax and beautiful color, not at all brown or tawny, more brickish, slightly orange towards the rim. First sniff- clearly this is a sound, complete wine that is without a doubt very much alive. Aromatically reminiscent of old Bordeaux with ample leather, earth, cigar box and tobacco, sandalwood veering towards old wooden cabinet (if that makes sense), clove and nutmeg and cola, fruit is still present- strawberry/pomegranate, orange, very herbal and floral with dried rose petals/potpurri, vibrant acidity and an impressively long, haunting finish. Incredibly elegant, silky texture, crystalline purity, finished very Burgundian. Really, a perfect hybrid of aged Bordeaux and Burgundy. As a friend put it, "somehow both aged and ageless." No question the best 50+ year old bottle I've been fortunate to try. Certainly a once in a lifetime opportunity, though I hope to track down another bottle someday. You'd never guess this was 105 years old.

Done in a more full bodied, rounder style. For less than 14$ fairly uni dimensional & perhaps a bit too one note. — a month ago
