Had this at chef Avillez’s Bairro in Lisbon’s Chiado neighborhood. First time trying a Dao DOC wine, and it was splendid. Medium bodied, dark fruit and peppery. A nice contrast to the lighter vino verde’s I’ve had a lot of in Portugal. A bottle of this in front of me would be dangerous. — 3 years ago

Very youthful for almost 20y, both in colour and on the nose, with the primary fruit still very present - black cherry, a bit of brambly blackberry, with some leather & cedarwood in the background. Still very fresh & enticing.
Brilliant mouthfeel, medium bodied with present but already mellowed tannins and fresh, juicy acidity. Good depth & great length. Fruity yet savoury, cool, elegant and so drinkable. The bottle empties dangerously fast.
Delicious stuff! — 4 months ago

Vintage 2020 | tasted blind next to Petite Shiraz. Smell is more open, giving more an more impressions after being longer in the glass. Rosehip, chocolate, cassis. This wine is a charmer. — a year ago

I've only had a couple touriga nacional non-fortified wines in my life, and they can vary widely in quality, structure, and tannin. This is on the softer side, no doubt partly because of its age, so it drinks easily.

Aromas are very reserved, a far cry from the aromatic wines I usually prefer. Lovely cocoa, clay, and homemade berry jam flavors. Reminds me of a Priorat but without the characteristic minerality. All in all solid. — 2 years ago
