2021 vintage. From the middle of the Atlantic on volcanic soil in harsh conditions. A blend of Aragonêz, Agronómica, Castelão, Malvarisco, Merlot, Touriga Nacional, Saborinha, Syrah and others. Very light , transparent ruby. Sour cherries and iodine with subtle spices. Fresh and light with cherry fruit , soft tannin and a salty mineral finish. Like a very mineral Trousseau . Abv. 11%.

Oct 19th, 2024Agree with Stephan’s review—def reminiscent of lighter Jura wines. Really lovely and elegant.

Mar 13th, 2024Drink a fino but hallucinate a red. This persistently salty, minerally, red-fruited wonder was shockingly mid+ weight with full, round mouthfeel at….11.5%. No typo. Dreamy stuff.

Dec 20th, 2016Смола, гудрон, черный перец, сера, соль, мох, можжевельник, калина, брусника, облепиха, пион, уголь. Средне-легкое тело, мягкие танины, естестественная прозрачность с элементами летучей кислотности. Неглубоко, но выразительно и индивидуально.

Jun 3rd, 2016Сера, канализационный сток, роза, калина, ежевика, земляника, пепел, битый гранит, щи из крапивы с яичком. Дать дышать. Неординарно, сочно, атас!

Jun 3rd, 2016Quite an unusual wine. Flavor profile similar to an Oregon PN but with more weight. A distinct saline note with a volcanic influence that reminds me of Mt. Etna reds. Certainly different but a good experience overall, 4* for unusual, 3* for overall quality.
