Top Notes For
Sipping Fine Wine

Blend of 58% Alicante Bouschet, 29% Aragonez and 13% Touriga Nacional, aged 12 month in oak, deep Ruby with aromas of ripe black fruits and spice. On the palate flavors of ripe blackberry and plum with slight pepper spice. Firm tannins, medium+ finish ending with fruit and spice, nice but a little cellaring will reward!

Very good! Would get again. Definitely medium bodied but drank like a heavy Pinot. Total wine purchase

N: funky and barn-y Tart cherries. P: a fresher flavor and lighter weight then I thought. Some tannins but not over the top.
