My favorite at the dinner with Lingua Franca founder, Larry Stone. Mimi’s Mind was complex, beautiful, nuanced and everything I enjoy about Pinot Noir. Seductive yet powerful. I want this one with some age. — a month ago

@Deborah M  do you feel the wines have remained the same post the acquisition of the brand?

@Ira Schwartz I do not have a great deal of experience with their wines but I was sitting next to someone who did and he thought they were still very special. He told me that the Pinots only get better with age.

@Deborah M Thank you for the quick response and I do agree with your dinner mate. I’m sitting on my ‘17 and ‘ 18 Mimi for now.

Quinta de Lemos

Dona Santana Touriga Nacional Blend 2008

Steve Rura
9.1

Very tasty aged Portuguese red. If I had it blind, I would guess Northern Spanish - Ribera del Duero or Rioja. Smooth and slightly musty/earthy from the age (got some cork crumbles). Opens pretty quickly, with concentrated red fruit and some blackberry. Pleasant tannic grip with a soft texture. Bold flavor throughout, big body (14.5% abv), some pepper and dry grass on a savory finish. Nice for a reasonable price. — 2 days ago
