Dense inky purple. Not much in nose, but smooth cherry, berry and black currant in mouth, with slight seed bitterness in finish. Restrained in tinto style. Easy drinking red now, but might be worth aging a year or two.

Very light up top, heavy on the finish, light on tannins, light on alcohol. For $12 or $13 it was right up our alley.

Vibrating between black raspberry & a favorite leather jacket, this brings a smooth lingering taste of unassuming greatness. Built to last and to give immediate pleasure like a great song, Luis Pato wines are that rare thing: affordable, dependable, and thrillingly delicious every time!

Great mouthfeel. Cigar, leather, smoke. Very nice today and very likely to improve with time in the cellar.

I have trouble with Portuguese reds sometimes, but this is rustic in a good way. A little acid, a little bramble, a little smoke.
