For what it is... and for the price. It’s enjoyable.

Aug 3rd, 2020Juicy red and black fruits on this - jammy fruit comes off with less booze than expected. Would pair with just about anything. @Tōst

Aug 28th, 2019Lilacs and petals and such, a lovely, yet structured nose.
Soft, elegant mouthfeel, vanilla bean, strawberry, jolly rancher.- esque like flavours,though stop short of being overly cloying. An easy sipper, a crowd pleaser, and the perfect cleanser for a porch session of IPA drinking.

Blackberry jam with a touch of chocolate and smoked hickory made this a tasty wine. Medium bodied, with balanced acidity and surprisingly potent tannins. Flavor did seem to fade after being open 1hr+ so don't overdo it with the decanting. Robust tannins helped it paired nicely with rosemary garlic butter strip streaks and homemade mashed potatoes. Once again, Portugal over performs for the price! ($8) [10/21/17]
