Beiras, Portugal
Fruit and dust, some sweet fruit and wood also. Dark berries, licorice, violet and herbal cough drops (Jägermeister?) on the palate.

Another Baga here. This one is aged. Very balanced and smooth, showing really well on the palate not that it's 18 years after it was made. Still in it's awkward teenage years for sure. There's a touch of a chlorine vibe with the aroma but the palate is slick and exciting. Shout out to the waitress who couldn't find the originally ordered vintage and botched getting the cork out. We paired it with grilled Dogfish and it cost about 15 euros.

Amazing structure and fruit. Leather, tobacco leaf, lilac and bright red/black fruits. Fantastic!
