2020 vintage. Very enjoyable.

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 year ago
Lovely bouquet. Dark stone fruit, like black plum. A little acidic, fruity, and medium tannins. Love it! — 4 months ago

Beautiful purity and elegance here from the Douro, extremely pretty with good fruit, spice, and floral interplay. Some underlying wood and stone. — 5 months ago
