Earthy fruit forward dark fruits — 12 years ago
A rich, full-bodied wine. It welcomes you with the deepest, darkest purple you have ever seen, almost black in color. Then, the aroma invistes you with dark blackberry, mulberry and a violet scent to a dense, firm mouthful of fruit along with fine tannins. It almost reminds you of a young Bordeaux. But then, no, as it’s spicy black pepper tingle and more violets and exotic notes come out. What would absolutely stun you is to find out was there is no oak used on this wine. The tannins are silky with time, but, make no mistake, this is a BIG wine. Often, that is achieved with oak. But here, it is just a reflection of the grapes and the touch nature of Alentejo! Unbelievable! — 8 years ago

Light Portuguese wine bright and fruity — 11 years ago
Fresh & juicy with crunchy black fruit and a doll, stony undercurrent. Plus just a hint of spice - allspice, cloves, anise, cinnamon. Lively & engaging.
Mid weight in the palate with bright juicy acidity, pure black fruit and slightly rustic yet v. juicy tannins. Fresh, juicy, very food friendly. Perfect match with steak frites! — 4 years ago
