Smells like an old rubber dinghy. There's herbs too though and smoked meat. Lots of tannins, burned smoky notes and tobacco. Very dry.

13 year old blend from the Beira Atlantico region. Just beautiful. Smooth and soft, but still very aromatic.

Fairly rustic. Just like many describe Xinomavro as Greece’s version of Nebbiolo, many claim Portugal’s Baga grape to be their own version of Nebbiolo. It has character but not as sophisticated as a Nebbiolo. A bit pricey, this one.

The bottle I tried a year ago must have been slightly off, because this time it’s delicious. More fruit-forward than I remembered. Soft cherry with delightful, delicate length. Nicely aged after a decade, not sour at all. Wine tasting is influenced by so many factors - almost never consistent for me.
