This is my 100th wine review and couldn't be better. Lots of black and red fruit followed by a wonderful mix of purple flowers and subtle oak notes. Well balanced and concentrated.

Best Portugal red I've had - and a real bargain. 40-80 year old vines.

This wine is an infant and may well rate higher with more time in the cellar. I found this blend elegant.

Big black cherry/raspberry fruit, Big barrel spice, dark chocolate, heavy floral aromatics, old ladies closet/moth balls, a bit too hot on alcohol.

This was delicious - with dark plum, spice and a distinct mineral edge. It should age really well.
