Slight herbaceous note deputy some nice ripe fruit. Pleasant enough but unremarkable

Deep ruby color. Blackberry, prune, and herbal note of oregano on the nose. Moderate bodied with ripe, dark fruit, grippy tannins, and somewhat hot finish. Blend of 40% Touriga Nacional, 40% Touriga Franca, and 20% Tinta Roriz (Tempranillo).

Dark rum soaked raisins, very port like, tangy, mulberries, dark cherries, smooth on approach, grippy tannins on exit. Looong finish. Needs a few more years to soften. But what a splendid wine nonetheless.

Absolutely beautiful deep color. Nicely oaked and a smooth finish. Part of the WSJ wine club. They must have snuck a bottle in the regular subscription :-)

WSJ premium club wine. Deep ruby red color and stellar body. Incredibly smoky and rich nose with a muted first palate then a sharp tannin-as-brakes stop to the mouthfeel. I found this was great with sharp cheddar, fatty pork belly, and just on its own as a bicep of a drink. I like it deep and strong and this fit he bill. This is like a 88' Chevy van lifted 4" with camp paint and an interior of high-fidelity audio, leather couches, and jaeger in the glove compartment.

WSJ Wine. Strong tannins. Mellowed as it breathed. This is a wine that will improve from being decanted.
