Now THIS is interesting: a 20+ field blend at 14.5% but completely in balance. Gritty tannins, almost like a Moulin Vent gamay with dark black fruits and great lift & freshness. Was drunk at sunset w good friends on a moderate day on the Hudson, so that probably influenced things.

A single vineyard field blend of old vines brought back from neglect by Antonio. Dark fruit, earthy tannins, spice and granite minerality. Still very much a baby, made for the long haul!

Pretty deep ruby with medium wide pink rim . Quite closed and mineral focused nose , with grafite , wet stone , dark cherry , blackberry and touch of toast . On the palate quite elegant dark fruits , with dark cherry , blackberry , grafite and cacao . Medium bodied with very fresh quite intense acidity and gritty , quite dry tannins . Medium length crushed rock and grafite tinged finish. This needs more time , better in 3-4 years and will last well a further 5-8

Tasted with Pascaline Lepeltier, who was as enthusiastic as the rest of us. Lots of sensory impressions in balance. Luis Seabra recommended we try this wine when we met him in Porto.
