Underripe fruit, quite jammy on the palette. Was better with excessive decanting to open up the wine and soften the bold tannins slightly

Love this grape. Ripe flavors, yet Fresher than a normal #douro it was a 8.9 or 9.0 but the next day it seemed excessively tired and boring.

Second time having this particular wine. Aromatic. Dark fruits, like crushed blackberries. Strong tannins.
