Estate Bottled Dão Red Blend

Interesting red from DAO portugal region. Smokey, ripe fruit red fruits...suprisingly high acid and med tannins. Nice easy drinking red for low price.

Pours ruby in color. Smoke Aroma is upfront. A heavy toasted barrel scent. Dried red fruit aroma follows. Favors of dried cherry, raspberry, and a hint of pleasant tar. Not an extracted wine. Light bodied not overwhelming but acids and flavor are well balanced. Just enough tannin to maintain structure.

Dark and smoky with some zippy acidity

Perfectly serviceable for its $11 #Dão #Portugal

This is pretty alright. Dark fruit, wood, and...mint? It's got acid.

Needs to breath, dark fruit

Not what I was hoping for, but it was decent. Lighter bodied than expected. Initially has robust flavor but unfortunately does not last. Smooth finish however.

Very fruit forward and fruit is delicious--berry preserves, smoke. Needs bigger bones.

Bright sour cherry with nice tannins. Almost citrusy.

Very reliable.... Good value.
