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]

Fruity, but full bodied. Lovely for a summer evening.
