Quinta da Pacheca
Tinto Douro Tinta Barroca Tinta Roriz
Douro, Portugal
Authentic, old-school, old-world aromas, no new oak to curb its energy. Chewy tannins, it could only be from the Douro. The fruit is little simple and shallow, just short of being excellent, but its honesty and modesty make it more appealing than many of the more ambitious/pretentious Douro reds.
